Species sensitivity comparisons across ligands

Adenine nucleotide	Ae. aegypti	An. gambiae	F (DFn, DFd)	P value
ATP	0.071 ± 0.19	0.67 ± 0.13	84.24 (1, 94)	< 0.0001
ADP	0.305 ± 0.25	1.17 ± 0.10	45.66 (1, 96)	< 0.0001
AMP	1.01 ± 0.12	2.24 ± 0.096	23.42 (1, 98)	< 0.0001

Values are EC₅₀ values and were obtained using a non-linear regression curve fit model using a least-square regression statistical fitting method
