Prevalence to vector-host ratio relationships. The endemic prevalence for a range of vector to host ratios at various population heterogeneity levels, k. Threshold behaviour is more pronounced when the population is less aggregated. When the population is more aggregated, there is little threshold behaviour. With the lowest k, corresponding with the highest level of aggregation, there is a smooth transition from zero prevalence to a positive prevalence within the population
