Table 2.

Comparison of adult longevity, fecundity, net reproductive rate and intrinsic growth rate among the resistant, susceptible and Kisumu colonies.

Colony/strain Mean ± SD
Longivity (days) R0 r Fecundity
Resistant 39.7 ± 1.6a 2.6 ± 0.3a 0.215 ± 0.007a 4.31 ± 0.9a
Susceptible 29.9 ± 1.7b 4.7 ± 0.6b 0. 285 ± 0.010b 8.6 ± 1.0b
Kisumu 29.6 ± 1.1b 4.1 ± 0.2b 0.241 ± 0.013b 9.7 ± 0.1b

Fecundity is measured in number of female progeny per female per day.

R0—is the mean net replacement rate (number of offspring per female per generation).

r—is intrinsic per-capita growth rate (number of offspring per female per day).

*Mean and standard deviations of fecundity, net reproductive rate intrinsic per-capita growth rate and survival time. The same superscript letters indicate no significant difference.
