Root exudate chemical cues of an invasive plant modulate oviposition behavior and survivorship of a malaria mosquito vector
Abstract Gravid female Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes identify suitable oviposition sites through a repertoire of cues, but the influence of allelochemicals, especially root phytochemicals in modulating this behavior and impacting subsequent progeny bionomics remains unexplored. We addressed these que...
