Aedes aegypti mosquitoes detect acidic volatiles found in human odor using the IR8a pathway

Mosquitoes use olfaction as a primary means of detecting their hosts. Previously, the functional ablation of a family of Aedes aegypti olfactory receptors, the Odorant Receptors (ORs), was not sufficient to reduce host-seeking in the presence of carbon dioxide (CO(2)). This suggests the olfactory re...
