Inhibition of Notch signaling rescues cardiovascular development in Kabuki Syndrome.

abstract：:Molecular interactions between male and female factors during mating profoundly affect the reproductive behavior and physiology of female insects. In natural populations of the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae, blood-fed females direct nutritional resources towards oogenesis only when inseminated. Here we show that ...
