Figure 1. Dried fungal spores of B. bassiana and M. anisopliae are attractive to female An. stephensi, but spores of B. bassiana are more attractive than those of M. anisopliae or Penicillium spp.

Figure 1

A) Percentage of females attracted to 50 mg of dried spores of B. bassiana, M. anisopliae, or Penicillium spp. placed on a filter paper disc (dark bars) versus a blank disc (light bars) (N = 60 females in each comparison); B) Percentage of females attracted to the arm containing B. bassiana spores (dark bars) compared to the arm containing spores of either M. anisopliae or Penicillium (light bars) (N = 60 females in each comparison). Brackets denote ±95% binomial confidence intervals (C.I.). Asterisks indicate significant differences between attraction to treatment choice-pairs (Chi-square 2×2 test of independence; **P≤0.01; ***P≤0.001).
