That explains most of it -- the not biting, the displacement effect. Still, infertility is strongly selected against. Unless the introduced mosquitoes completely displace existing males in the mating pool, or the bacteria are transmitted between mosquitoes, it sounds like a pretty short term fix. With males living only 10 days, wouldn't the population bounce back pretty quickly? |
