The influence of trapping method and experiment upon the proportion of sampled An. gambiae s.l. which were parous, determined by logistic regression as described in the methods section

Ifakara B | 30.4 (106/349) | 1.00 [0.73, 1.36] | 0.999 |
Light trap | 15.2 (141/930) | 0.97 [0.74, 1.27] | 0.849 |
Human landing catch | 41.0 (293/714) | 1.00a | NA |
