Gametocyte density and parasite clones recovered from blood and mosquito midguts in the four most infectious individuals

Each individual colour indicates the contribution of a unique Plasmodium falciparum clone. Male and female gametocyte densities and the number of clones detected in blood and infected mosquitoes are shown for samples from the four individuals who infected the most mosquitoes in all mosquito membrane feeding experiments combined. *The bars indicate infectious feeds done during the visit dates. †Total parasite density and clonal composition of blood samples.
