Figure 2. Extrinsic incubation period in high- versus low-infected mosquitoes.

Figure 2.

(A) Total sporozoites (SPZ) per mosquito in body plus salivary glands (x-axis) were binned by infection load <1k; 1k–10k; 10k–50k; >50k and plotted against the proportion of mosquitoes (%) that were SPZ positive (y-axis) as estimated from an additive logistic regression model with factors day and SPZ categories. In total, 120, 120, and 40 mosquitoes were dissected on days 9 (blue), 10 (dark green), and 11 (light green), respectively. Error bars show the 95% confidence intervals. (B) Violin plots of SPZ density in single oocysts dissected on days 9 (purple) and 10 (green). The box indicates the interquartile range (IQR) (Q1 and Q3 quartiles) and the median. Lines extending Q1 and Q3 quartiles indicate the range of the data within 1.5× IQR.
