Distances flown by A. gambiae females (4 day old with access to 10% fructose; attached to flight mills) for up to 4 h post injection with 50 pmol of Anoga-AKH-I (solid circles: A, intact; B, decapitated), Anoga-AKH-II (solid circle: C, intact; D, decapitated), or saline (open circles). Decapitated, Anoga-AKH-I treated females flew a significantly greater distance than controls (B. p ≤ 0.0002; 2-way ANOVA; M±S.E.; N = 10-15), and similarly treated intact females showed the same but non-significant trend (A. p ≤ 0.03).
