Proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids were compared in larval, pupal, and adult stages of autogenous and anautogenous populations of Culex pipiens and Aedes caspius. All developmental stages of autogenous mosquitoes accumulated significantly more proteins and carbohydrates than did anautogenous sibligns. For lipids, the same pattern was observed with the exception that adult females of both autogenous and anautogenous Ae. caspius had comparable quantities (170-176 micrograms/mg). In general, mosquito larvae contained the highest quantities of the nutrients which then started to decrease in pupae and adults. In addition, autogenous Ae. caspius accumulated more carbohydrates and lipids but less proteins than did Cx. pipiens. The results suggest that autogeny is associated with an inherent ability of autogenous mosquitoes to store more nutritional reserves than anautogenous counterparts. Those reserves are the precursors for oogenesis to produce the first egg clutch in autogenous femles.
对致倦库蚊和里海伊蚊自育型和非自育型种群的幼虫、蛹和成虫阶段的蛋白质、碳水化合物和脂质进行了比较。自育型蚊子的所有发育阶段积累的蛋白质和碳水化合物都明显多于非自育型同胞。对于脂质，观察到相同的模式，只是自育型和非自育型里海伊蚊的成年雌蚊脂质含量相当（170 - 176微克/毫克）。一般来说，蚊子幼虫所含的营养物质最多，然后在蛹和成虫阶段开始减少。此外，自育型里海伊蚊积累的碳水化合物和脂质比致倦库蚊多，但蛋白质比致倦库蚊少。结果表明，自育与自育型蚊子比非自育型蚊子具有储存更多营养储备的内在能力有关。这些储备是自育型雌蚊卵子发生以产生第一批卵块的前体。
