Experimental effects of Vavraia on mortality of insecticide-resistant mosquitoes. In both panels, red symbols and lines represent permethrin-resistant mosquitoes (RSP line) and blue symbols and lines represent DDT-resistant mosquitoes (ZANU line); in panel B, black lines represent sensitive mosquitoes (Kisumu line). Solid symbols and lines represent microsporidian-infected mosquitoes; open symbols and dotted lines represent uninfected mosquitoes. (A) The proportion of insecticide-resistant mosquitoes dying within 24 h after exposure to permethrin (RSP line) or DDT (ZANU line), as a function of Vavraia-infection. Exposure time is shown on the x-axis. The vertical lines show the 95% confidence intervals of the proportion. (B) Survival curves of permethrin-resistant, DDT-resistant and insecticide–sensitive mosquitoes not exposed to the insecticide, as a function of Vavraia-infection.
