Larval diet and temperature alter mosquito immunity and development: using body size and developmental traits to track carry-over effects on longevity
22 Nov 2023
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Estimating arbovirus transmission potential requires a mechanistic understanding of how environmental factors influence the expression of adult mosquito traits. While preimaginal exposure to environmental factors can have profound effects on adult traits, tracking and predicting these effects remains challenging. METHODS: Using Aedes albopictus and a structural equation modeling approach, we explored...
