Few laboratory and field studies have reported long survival periods for Ae. aegypti females
and even fewer have designed experiments to characterize this important life history trait …

The duration of blood feeding by similar-sized Aedes aegypti (L.) was determined under
laboratory conditions in Trinidad, West Indies. Ae. aegypti from the F0 generation contained …

The interpopulation variation in life history traits of a species reflects evolutionary adaptation
in response to a local environment regime. We examined the life history traits of Aedes …

Mortality is a critical factor in determining a mosquito's ability to transmit pathogens. We
investigated the effect of human blood feeding and reproduction on mortality of the dengue …

Daily survivorship and fecundity of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes were monitored for cohorts
provided with five nutritional treatments: water, 2% sucrose, blood from a live chicken plus …

The growth and associated traits of Aedes aegypti (L.) mosquitoes may adapt and evolve in
response to the costs associated with body size in relation to latitudinal variation. We …

Aedes aegypti (L.) were exposed to all of the physiological stresses of a natural
environment, without mortality from predation or from the defensive behavior of bitten hosts …

Survival of adult Aedes aegypti (L.) was studied in Thailand (1995) and Puerto Rico (1996)
during periods of high and low dengue virus transmission. Resting males and females were …

Simple Summary Aedes aegypti is a mosquito that transmits viruses responsible for several
diseases in humans, such as dengue, Zika, and chikungunya. It is crucial to study mosquito …

The time taken by Aedes aegypti to take a bloodmeal was determined under laboratory and
field conditions in Trinidad. Eggs from field-collected females were reared under nutrient …
