Anti-mosquito antibodies decrease the reproductive capacity of Aedes aegypti.

M S Ramasamy1, R Ramasamy, B H Kay, C Kidson.   

Abstract

Aedes aegypti (L.) fed on rabbits immunized with mosquito antigens showed a reduction in fecundity in the first oviposition and decreased viability of the progeny. Feeding behaviour of mosquitoes was not affected and no significant mortality was observed due to the presence of anti-mosquito antibodies in the bloodmeal. Antibodies were detected in the oocytes of mosquitoes 48 h after the bloodmeal. The role of specific antibodies in influencing fecundity is discussed.
