Motility of ilea isolated from female mosquitoes in response to added saline (vehicle control), RhoprPK2b and 5-HT (stimulatory control). The change in contraction frequency (A), duration (B) and length of time between contractions (C) was measured relative to baseline recordings. Values are presented as mean ± SEM from 15 preparations. Significant differences between the treatments are denoted by different letters, as determined by a one-way repeated measures ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparison test (p < 0.05).
