Differential sensitivity and specificity of Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae to adenine nucleotide phagostimulants—an all-or-none response?

Differential sensitivity and specificity of Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae to adenine nucleotide phagostimulants—an all-or-none response?

Abstract Background The decision to imbibe a blood meal is predominantly dependent on the sensitivity and specificity of haematophagous arthropods to blood-derived adenine nucleotides, in particular adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Despite previous efforts to identify and characterise the specificity a...
