From: Expression of trypsin modulating oostatic factor (TMOF) in an entomopathogenic fungus increases its virulence towards Anopheles gambiae and reduces fecundity in the target mosquito

Figure 2

Aea -TMOF reduces fecundity of Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes. A. gambiae females sprayed with a suspension of 1 × 108 spores/ml of wild type or Bb-Aa1 strain, were given a blood meal 24 h after fungal infection. Non-infected, blood-fed mosquitoes were used as controls. Each circle on the graph represents the number of eggs per mosquito. Medians are indicated by black lines and distributions were compared using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. N, number of mosquitoes in each group.
