흰줄숲모기 수컷생식부속선물질이 암컷의 교미행동, 숙주탐색행동 및 산란행동에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 얻은 결과는 다음과 같다. 수컷생식부속선물질 0.5 gland equivalents를 주입하였을 때, 암컷의 교미율은 0.0%, 1.0 에서 3.3%, 2.0에서는 3.3%의 교미율을 나타내 saline만을 주입하였을 때(100%)에 비해 의미있는 유의차로 교미가 억제되었다. 흰줄숲모기 암컷의 영양, 나이, 교미여부 및 수컷생식부속선물질에 따른 숙주탐색행동변화에서, 영양이 부족하거나 교미하지 않은 암컷이 교미한 암컷보다 활발한 숙주탐색행동을 나타냈다. 수컷생식부속선물질을 미교미 암컷에 주입하였을 경우에는 0.5 gland equivalents 이상에서 대조군(27.8%)에 비해 숙주탐색행동에서 커다란 억제효과를 나타냈다. 수컷생식부속선물질이 암컷의 산란행동에 미치는 영향에서 흰줄숲모기 수컷생식부속선물질 0.5 gland equivalents를 주입하였을 때, 암컷의 산란율은 42.2%로 대조군의 산란율(15.7%)에 비해 유의성있는 차이를 나타냈다. 결론적으로 흰줄숲모기 수컷생식부속선물질은 0.5 gland equivalents이상에서 암컷의 교미행동과 숙주탐색행동을 크게 억제하고, 반대로 산란행동을 유도하였다.
This study was carried out to examine that the effects of male accessory gland substances on the mating, host-seeking and oviposition behaviors of Aedes albopictus female. There was a significant difference between the females injected with different equivalents of MAGs of Ae. atbopictus from control with 100.0% of the mating rate, 0.5 gland equivalents with 0.0%, 1.0 gland equivalents with 3.3％, and 2.0 gland equivalents with 3.3%, showing that MAGs of Ae. albopictus greatly inhibited the mating behavior of female adults. While only 2.2% of the mated females responded, 30.2%, a significantly larger percentage of the unmated females, engaged in host-seeking behavior.27.8% of the gravid females injected with saline showed the host-seeking behavior, but only 7.0% of those injected with 0.5 gland equivalents responded. The difference in responses between the two groups was highly significant. The oviposition rate from the females injected with 0.5 gland equivalents of MAGs was 42.2%, while that from control was just 15.7%. As the females injected with 1.0 gland equivalents of MAGs, 46.3% of females oviposited and 2.0 gland equivalents of MAGs injected showed 49.4% of oviposition rate. And, it can be concluded that the male accessory gland product that modulated the mating, host-seeking and ovipositions behavior of female Ae. albopictus mosquitoes.
