Sex, Age, and Parental Harmonic Convergence Behavior Affect the Immune Performance of <i>Aedes aegypti</i> Offspring

2020-09-25

Abstract excerpt

Aedes aegypti is an important vector of several pathogenic arboviruses including dengue, chikungunya and Zika. Innovative approaches to control Aedes populations, involving synthetic transgenic modifications as well as Wolbachia bacteria, appear promising. For the various techniques requiring offspring inheritance of a trait, released males must successfully compete for mating partners against wildtype males. Ho...
