Beta diversity analysis. Principal coordinates analysis of Jensen-Shannon distances. Distinct clustering patterns for each experimental treatment and their corresponding replicates are represented by a color code. Axis 1 (27.88%) and Axis 2 (19.9%) show the percentage of variation explained. Treatment 1 (T1): environmental control (type I water plus sterilized food). Treatment 2 (T2): manually-deposited sterilized mosquito eggs. Treatment 3 (T3): manually-deposited non-sterilized eggs. Treatment 4 (T4): single sugar-fed females interacting with container water. Treatment 5 (T5): single gravid female (72 h post-blood-feeding) allowed to lay eggs
