Altered thermal preferences of infected or immune-challenged Aedes aegypti and Aedes japonicus mosquitoes
Abstract Temperature is a critical factor shaping physiology, life cycle, and behaviour of ectothermic vector insects, as well as the development and multiplication of pathogens within them. However, the influence of pathogen infections on thermal preferences (behavioural thermoregulation) is not we...
