Melanin deposition

downin A. gambiae1

1 study

  1. Higher temperature decreases melanin deposition in A. gambiae.

    “this aging-dependent decline is accelerated by higher temperature.”

Melanization potential

downin A. gambiae1

1 study

  1. Higher temperature decreases melanization potential in A. gambiae.

    “aging-dependent decline in melanization begins at a younger age.”
