Table 2. Mean Distance Travelled (MDT) with Confidence Interval (CI) calculated by bootstrap, Flight Range 50 (FR 50), Flight Range 90 (FR 90) and wing measurement with standard deviation (SD) for OX513A-My1 and My1 laboratory strains.

Strain MDT [CI] FR 50 [CI] FR 90 [CI] Wing measurement [SD]
OX513A-My1 52.4 m [41.6; 61.4] 16.2 m [10.5;22.5] 142.3 m [116.5;157.6] 2.11 [0.08] (n = 223)
My1 99.8 m [79.6; 115.5] 59.7 m [42.8;73.6] 211.8 m [179.9;226.3] 1.96 [0.09] (n = 219)

95% confidence intervals were calculated by resampling individual mosquitoes with replacement and then reporting the 2.5 and 97.5 percentiles of the estimates obtained from 1,000 such bootstrap samples. n: sample size.
