Results of the LMMs explaining variance in WNV seroprevalence estimated by ELISA (N = 45 localities).
| est | z | p | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mosquito species richness | 2.24 | 2.18 | 0.03 |
| Cx. perexiguus | 1.93 | 2.04 | 0.03 |
| Cx. theileri | −2.81 | 2.41 | 0.02 |
| Oc. caspius | −2.54 | 2.14 | 0.02 |
| Explained variance | 35% | ||
Only estimate (est), z and p values of the independent variables included in the final LMMs are shown; significant associations are marked in bold. Habitat category and the number of Cx. pipiens captured did not significantly improve the fit of the models.
