Table 1 ABA supplementation did not alter A. stephensi lifespan. Median survival times of control and ABA-treated mosquitoes are shown from five lifespans in which mosquitoes received a weekly uninfected blood meal with or without ABA supplementation. Differences in lifespan between treatment groups were analyzed by log-rank test and Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test

From: Abscisic acid induces a transient shift in signaling that enhances NF-κB-mediated parasite killing in the midgut of Anopheles stephensi without reducing lifespan or fecundity
