Research progress on the effects of human skin microbiota on mosquito olfactory behavior

doi:10.12140/j.issn.1000-7423.2022.01.014

Abstract

Abstract:

Mosquitoes are the vectors for many infectious diseases, including malaria, dengue and yellow fever. Mosquito control measures can reduce the transmission of these infectious diseases. In recent years, it has been discovered that the metabolites or volatile odorants produced by human skin microbiota are attractive to mosquitoes, which is expected to provide new methods for mosquito control approaches. In this review, we summarized the composition and distribution of human skin microbiota and the effects of volatile odorants on the mosquito olfactory behavior, which may provide a foundation for the development and implementation of novel mosquito repellents and attractants.

Key words: Mosquitoes, Mosquito’s olfactory behavior, Human skin microbiota, Volatile organic chemical, Attraction
