Figure 1

Infection rates and intensities of co-infections in three combinations of L. donovani strains in L. longipalpis (LO) and P. perniciosus (PE). A, LEM3804 plus LV9: in late stage infections (days 7 and 10) LEM3804 mostly over-grew LV9, in some females LV9 disappeared. B, Gebre-1 plus LV9: Gebre-1 grew better than LV9, in a high proportion of females LV9 was lost during late stage infections. C, Gebre-1 plus LEM4265: in late stage infections Gebre-1 mostly over-grew LEM4265, in a high proportion of females LEM4265 disappeared.
