Tensile strength of G2 null mutant ookinetes. Percentage cell death measured after hypo-osmotic shock of ookinetes from parasite lines G2/GFP and G2-KO (Experiment 1), or of wild-type (WT), G2-KO and IMC1b-KO parasites (Experiment 2). Error bars indicate standard deviations from three independent experiments. Values were normalized to 100% viability in untreated cells. At least 100 ookinetes were scored for each sample.
