Light Microscope^a evaluation of the proportion of male irradiated and non-irradiated control G. m. morsitans flies infected with T. b. brucei

Treatment	Infected/ total # flies		Maturation	P values
	Midgut glands	Salivary gland rate		Midgut glands	Salivary gland rate
Non-irradiated	11/61	9/61	0.82	–	–
Irradiated	3/50	3/50	1	0.0839	0.219

p values were obtained by comparing the infection prevalence of the irradiated group to the infection prevalence of non-treated control flies using a two-sided Fisher’s exact test.

^aLight-Microscope observations/evaluations conducted using 100× magnification to carry out the observations
