Mosquito host-seeking diel rhythm and chemosensory gene expression is affected by age and Plasmodium stages
Abstract Malaria parasites can affect vector-related behaviours, increasing transmission success. Using Anopheles gambiae and Plasmodium falciparum, we consider the effect of interaction between infection stage and vector age on diel locomotion in response to human odour and the expression of antenn...
