The accessory glands of male mosquitoes may produce substances that are transferred to females during mating and alter female physiology and behaviour. The effects of male substances include the inhibition of subsequent female mating behaviour, stimulation of oviposition and preoviposition behaviours, and the inhibition of host-seeking behaviour. The circadian rhythmicity of females can also be altered and their metabolic priorities restructured, making them more likely to reproduce. The specific components that affect the female have yet to be completely identified, but the published reports are summarized.
