Capacity of mosquitoes to transmit malaria depends on larval environment
Abstract Background Adult traits of holometabolous insects such as reproduction and survival can be shaped by conditions experienced during larval development. These “carry-over” effects influence not only individual life history and fitness, but can also impact interactions between insect hosts and...
