Increased biting rate and decreased <i>Wolbachia</i> density in irradiated <i>Aedes</i> mosquitoes

2021-02-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Releasing considerable numbers of radiation-sterilized males is a promising strategy to suppress mosquito vectors. However, releases may also include small percentages of biting females which translate to large numbers when releases are large. Currently, the effects of irradiation on the host-seeking and host-biting behaviors have not been exhaustively investigated. Information is also lacking...
