Is Anopheles gambiae attraction to floral and human skin-based odours and their combination modulated by previous blood meal experience?

2020-08-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Mosquitoes use odours to find energy resources, blood hosts and oviposition sites. While these odour sources are normally spatio-temporally segregated in a mosquito’s life history, here this study explored to what extent a combination of flower- and human-mimicking synthetic volatiles would attract the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto ( s.s .) <h4>Methods: </h4> In the laborator...
