Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum in six species of laboratory-reared Anopheles mosquitoes
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1994)Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum was compared in six species of Anopheles mosquitoes. A reference species, A. gambiae, was selected as the standard for comparison. Estimates of absolute densities ... -
Waveforms from stylet probing of the mosquito Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) measured by AC-DC electropenetrography
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020)Electropenetrography (EPG) has been used for many years to visualize unseen stylet probing behaviors of plant-feeding piercing-sucking insects, primarily hemipterans. Yet, EPG has not been extensively used with blood-feeding ...
