Dietary para-aminobenzoic acid, uric acid, and antibiotics modulate the susceptibility of Anopheles darlingi and Anopheles albimanus to Plasmodium berghei
This study is the first investigation to demonstrate that post-infection dietary treatments might influence the susceptibility of American vectors to <i>P. berghei</i>, hence broadening the scope for research on infection dynamics and parasite management mechanisms.
