Effects of larval growth condition and water availability on desiccation resistance and its physiological basis in adult Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto.

Malaria journal - 7 Aug 2010

Aboagye-Antwi Fred, Tripet Frédéric

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Natural populations of the malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae s.s. are exposed to large seasonal and daily fluctuations in relative humidity and temperature, which makes coping with drought a crucial aspect of their ecology. METHODS: To better understand natural variation in desiccation resistance in this species, the effects of variation in larval food availability and access to water as an adult on...
