摘要:
Abstract.High titres of antibodies to antigens derived from head/thorax, midgut or abdomen ofAnopheles tessellatuswere produced in inbred mice. These antibodies, when ingested in a bloodmeal, reduced the fecundity ofAn.tessellatusby up to 29% in different experiments. It is postulated that antibodies directed against antigens shared between the head/thorax, abdomen and midgut tissues are involved in the reduction of fecundity.
