Researchers have engineered a mosquito-killing Metarhizium fungus that emits a flower-like scent, longifolene, to draw in the insects and infect them. The work, published October 24, 2025, in Nature Microbiology, could provide a safe, affordable complement to chemical pesticides amid rising mosquito-borne disease, the team says.
