The contribution of dietary restriction to extended longevity in the malaria vector Anopheles coluzzii

Table 3 The effects of temperature, RH, and nutritional regime, with interactions on longevity: Model 1, by treatment (= exposure) Cox regression, with varying conditions of temperature and relative humidity. Model 2, with time-dependent diet-regime variables and varying conditions of sugar or blood consumption
