Given the importance of Aedes aegypti as an arbovirus vector, understanding the impact of population density during larval development is fundamental to improve control methods. The aims of this study were to analyze the effects of larval density on the triacylglycerol (TAG) reserves, fecundity, and the size of mosquitos. To evaluate the influence of density on the amount of TAG in the different stages of development of A. aegypti, the larvae were reared in densities of 0.04, 0.32, and 0.8 larvae/ml, represented by D1, D2, and D3, respectively. Larval rearing density affected the amount of TAG in the different developmental stages of this insect. The group reared with the highest population density (D3) presented greater storage of TAG, except when analyzing the amount of TAG μg/protein in the fat body of blood‐fed females. In addition, it was possible to observe higher resistance to fasting and a greater number of eggs laid. Insects reared in D2 and D3 were larger than those in the D1 group. This study provides interesting data for future investigations on how the density of larval rearing affects the lipid metabolism for synthesis and mobilization of TAG stored in A. aegypti and how it influences size and reproduction.

幼虫密度对埃及伊蚊(Linnaeus)(双翅目:葫芦科)中三酰甘油含量的影响

鉴于埃及伊蚊作为虫媒病毒的重要性,了解幼虫发育过程中种群密度的影响对改进控制方法至关重要。这项研究的目的是分析幼虫密度对三酰甘油(TAG)储备,繁殖力和蚊子大小的影响。评估密度对埃及埃及按蚊不同发育阶段TAG量的影响,分别以D1,D2和D3表示的幼虫密度为0.04、0.32和0.8的幼虫/毫升进行饲养。幼虫的饲养密度会影响该昆虫不同发育阶段的TAG量。以最高的人口密度(D3)饲养的组显示出更大的TAG储存能力,但分析血液喂养的女性脂肪体内TAG微克/蛋白质的含量除外。另外,有可能观察到更高的对禁食的抵抗力和更多的卵产。D2和D3饲养的昆虫比D1组的昆虫大。这项研究为以后的研究提供了有趣的数据,关于幼虫饲养密度如何影响脂代谢,从而合成和动员埃及伊蚊存储的TAG ,以及它如何影响大小和繁殖。
