Behavioral heterogeneity in host-seeking and post-feeding suppression among disease vector mosquitoes

2025-06-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Female mosquitoes seek out vertebrate hosts and consume their blood to obtain nutrients necessary for egg production, but host preference and host-seeking strategies differ markedly across species. These behaviors are also modulated by internal physiological states, such as the suppression of host-seeking after a full blood meal, a phenomenon that varies in timing and duration across mosquito spe...
