Larval diet and temperature alter mosquito immunity and development: using body size and developmental traits to track carry-over effects on longevity
Abstract Background Estimating arbovirus transmission potential requires a mechanistic understanding of how environmental factors influence the expression of adult mosquito traits. While preimaginal exposure to environmental factors can have profound effects on adult traits, tracking and predicting...
