Automated age grading of female Culex pipiens by an optical sensor system coupled to a mosquito trap

Automated age grading of female Culex pipiens by an optical sensor system coupled to a mosquito trap

Abstract Background The age distribution of a mosquito population is a major determinant of its vectorial capacity. To contribute to disease transmission, a competent mosquito vector, carrying a pathogen, must live longer than the extrinsic incubation period of that pathogen to enable transmission t...
