Mosquito host-seeking diel rhythm and chemosensory gene expression is affected by age and Plasmodium stages
2022-06-21
Abstract excerpt
Malaria parasites can affect vector-related behaviours, increasing transmission success. Using Anopheles gambiae and Plasmodium falciparum , we consider the effect of interaction between infection stage and vector age on diel locomotion in response to human odour and the expression of antennal chemosensory genes. We demonstrate age-dependent behavioural diel compartmentalisation by uninfected females post-blood me...
