Host selection and feeding preferences of farm-associated mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in the United Kingdom

2016-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Livestock farms sit at the interface between humans, livestock species and wildlife. However, limited data exist on mosquito-vertebrate host interactions on farms in the United Kingdom. This thesis therefore aimed to understand mosquito-vertebrate host interactions on UK livestock farms using a combination of field collections, colony mosquito experiments and molecular techniques for species identification and blo...
