Mosquitoes maintained on water from emergence were less likely to develop eggs after a
blood meal compared to those maintained on sucrose, and those carbohydrate-deprived …

The effect of mating on egg development in starved Aedes aegypti mosquitoes was
examined. Mated females that were maintained on water for 4 days before ingesting blood …

The effects of dietary sugar and body size on the oviposition of Ae. aegypti were studied
under laboratory conditions. In female mosquitoes provided with sugar, the start of maximum …

The inhibition of host-seeking behaviour that accompanies vitellogenesis in the mosquito,
Aedes aegypti, was examined by the removal and implantation of ovaries. Mosquitoes …

The effects of a single sucrose meal or topical application of juvenile hormone III or
methoprene on egg development following a 2 μl blood meal were studied in otherwise …

Female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes were given 1 μl blood enemas, and their subsequent
host-seeking behaviour determined in an olfactometer. Those females failing to develop …

Abstract Unfed 2-to 5-day-old starved females and 12-day-old sugar-fed females of various
species of Florida mosquitoes were fed ad lib. a meal of chicken blood to repletion and …

Following a blood meal that initiates oöcyte development, the host-seeking behaviour of
Aedes aegypti mosquitoes is inhibited by a haemolymph-borne factor that is released in …

We examined the utilization of sugar and human blood as nutrient sources for small and
large female Aedes aegypti (L.) when they were fed blood 2 or 5 d after emergence …

We determined whether size, an indirect measure of teneral energy reserves, modifies the
fitness advantage (sigma survival x egg production/female/day) conferred to female Aedes …
