Effects of host sex, body mass and infection by avian Plasmodium on the biting rate of two mosquito species with different feeding preferences
BACKGROUND: The transmission of mosquito-borne pathogens is strongly influenced by the contact rates between mosquitoes and susceptible hosts. The biting rates of mosquitoes depend on different factors including the mosquito species and host-related traits (i.e. odour, heat and behaviour). However,...
