Olfaction in Vector-Host Interactions

This comprehensive volume explores the role of olfaction—the sense of smell—in the interactions between arthropod vectors and their vertebrate hosts. It delves into the mechanisms by which vectors detect and respond to host odors, influencing behaviors such as feeding, mating, and habitat selection. The book also examines how understanding these olfactory interactions can inform vector control strategies and the management of vector-borne diseases.
