Relationship between mosquito feeding preferences and body mass (BM) (a) and resting metabolic rate (RMR, logistic transformation) (b). The blood meal origin was determined from 429 engorged mosquitoes. The total sample size of house sparrows was 30, with 15 replicates for control and DNP groups, respectively. Estimates were derived from the highest-ranked models according to the AICc. Each conditional relationship was plotted by holding the median value of the other variable using the visreg package (version 2.2.2) in R
