Molecular characterization of larval peripheral thermosensory responses of the malaria vector mosquito Anopheles gambiae.

Thermosensation provides vital inputs for the malaria vector mosquito, Anopheles gambiae which utilizes heat-sensitivity within a broad spectrum of behaviors, most notably, the localization of human hosts for blood feeding. In this study, we examine thermosensory behaviors in larval-stage An. gambia...
