Mosquito species and age influence thermal performance of traits relevant to malaria transmission

2019-09-14

Abstract excerpt

Models predicting disease transmission are a vital tool in the control of mosquito populations and malaria reduction as they can target intervention efforts. We compared the performance of temperature-dependent transmission models when mosquito life history traits were allowed to change across the lifespan of Anopheles stephensi , the urban malaria mosquito, to models parameterized with commonly derived estimates...
