Figure 5

Behavioral responses of the An. coluzzii to labella-active odorant blend. Schematic representation of the dual-choice heat based landing assay (A) and oviposition (B) assays. Landing preference of non-blood-fed (C), and 48 h post-blood-fed (D) female mosquitoes to a 10-component labial active blend (mean ± s.e.m.; N = 10). (E) Oviposition preference of gravid mosquitoes to a labial active blend (mean ± s.e.m.; N = 8). The landing and oviposition index for the four doses of the blend were compared to ethanol control (*P < 0.05, one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni’s post-test).
