Figure 1.
EAG responses (µV) of female Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes presented with an uninfected bloodmeal (uninfected) or Plasmodium falciparum infected bloodmeal which showed the presence (infected) or absence (challenged) of parasites in oocyst and sporozoite stage mosquitoes. EAG was carried out at (top) 8–10 days post challenge (oocyst stage,) or (bottom) 15–16 days post challenge (sporozoite stage). Treatments were: hexane (negative control), methyl salicylate (MS), 3-methyl-1-butanol (3MB), isovaleric acid, lactic acid, ammonia (NH3) and tetradecanoic acid (TDA). Here, compounds are tagged when significantly different from the negative control (hexane) (***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05), or, when indicated with a comparative line, as different between infection statuses. ±Standard Error bars are shown.
