Competitiveness indices of sterile male Ae. albopictus under semi-field conditions.

Mean fecundity and fertility values of wild females in the different conditions (ratio of sterile male: wild male: wild female and age at release varied) and competitiveness index (C) of sterile males. C was based on the fertility levels of control wild males (93.5±0.4%) and sterile males (4.9±0.3%).
