Effect of time post blood-meal on mean bovine Ct values produced from qPCR. Shown are the means (bars indicate 95% CIs) of experimental time series (black), the serial dilution Ct values to assess assay sensitivity (blue), the mean (and 95% CI) Ct values of each transect point (red) and regression line used to predict time post feeding (dashed black line). Note that ‘time post-feed’ is from direct observation for colony mosquito blood-meal digestions (black) but is then extrapolated to the estimated time post-feed for field-caught mosquitoes
