C-Type Lectins Link Immunological and Reproductive Processes in Aedes aegypti

Summary: Physiological trade-offs between mosquito immune response and reproductive capability can arise due to insufficient resource availability. C-type lectin family members may be involved in these processes. We established a GCTL-3−/− mutant Aedes aegypti using CRISPR/Cas9 to investigate the ro...
