- Survivorship varied due to strain while one strain varied due to antibiotics.
- No effects on fertility in any strain.
- Fecundity varied in one strain due to antibiotics.
- No effects on fitness due to dengue infection.
- Overall, few effects were evident following microbial clearance or with dengue infection.
