Fungus-Based Mosquito Control: A Potential Game Changer in the Fight Against Malaria and Dengue Fever

Researchers have genetically engineered a fungus that produces a sweet-smelling substance, irresistible to mosquitoes, providing an affordable and ecologically friendly way to control the disease-spreading insects. Key Takeaways: * The fungus, Metarhizium, can be genetically engineered to produce longifolene, a sweet-smelling substance that attracts mosquitoes, in lab experiments 90-100% of mosquitoes
