Sex, age, and parental harmonic convergence behavior affect the immune performance of Aedes aegypti offspring

11 Jun 2021

Abstract excerpt

Harmonic convergence is a potential cue, female mosquitoes use to choose male mates. However, very little is known about the benefits this choice confers to offspring performance. Using Aedes aegypti (an important vector of human disease), we investigated whether offspring of converging parental pairs showed differences in immune competence compared to offspring derived from non-converging parental pairs. Here we...
