Elasticity values of the input parameters with inter-cohort overlap (A, B) and without overlap (C, D). Case 1 – lower vertical and higher cofeeding transmission – the parameters related to nymphs have much higher elasticities, indicating that nymphs play the critical role in determining R₀. The cofeeing transmission parameter () has high elasticity, and it is dominated by the pathway from nymphs to larvae (). Case 2 – higher vertical and lower cofeeding transmission – the parameters for larvae increase elasticities.
