  1. Samples were characterised using two X-chromosome diagnostic markers ā€“ the IGS [20] and SINE [19]. bx_A.a and bx_A.g are are backrosses to An. arabiensis and An. gambiae. Counts in columns 2ā€“4 show significantly mixed individuals; NSā€‰=ā€‰not significantly mixed. p(bx) and LCL95, UCL95 are the frequency of backcrosses and associated binomial lower and upper confidence limits. ā€ Pā€‰=ā€‰0.058; noteā€‰>ā€‰bx3_A.g are below detection limit of test.
