Effect of uninfected and P. berghei-infected blood meal on Asaia density and immune genes expression in An. gambiae. Evaluation of the fluctuations of Asaia density in mosquitoes challenged with two doses of Asaia cells: Asa4 (A) and Asa8 (B), and the related modulation of immune effector genes after an uninfected and an infected blood meal (C, D, E, F). Shown values represent the relative genes expression normalized on the reference gene RpS7 and against the calibrator represented by sugar-fed controls (relative expression of sugar-fed mosquitoes in Figure S1-B). The statistical differences between Asaia density and the expression level of genes in the groups were calculated by two-way ANOVA test with Bonferroni post-hoc test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
