title: [Strategies for selection and stability to asphyxia in larvae of the malaria mosquito Anopheles messeae with various karyotypes].
abstract: Sensitivity to asphyxia (oxygen deficiency) Anopheles messeae larvae was studied. It was demonstrated that mosquitoes with mosquitoes with "northern" chromosome inversions perish underwater more more quickly than mosquitoes with "southern" karyotypes. Apparently, resistance to asphyxia is a component of the adaptive strategy and is maintained by K-selection. The respiration and energy metabolism of larvae with different gene complexes are discussed.
