From: Too “sexy” for the field? Paired measures of laboratory and semi-field performance highlight variability in the apparent mating fitness of Aedes aegypti transgenic strains

Results from the small cage and semi-field mating experiments. a The mean (± standard deviation) proportion of trials in which a DsRedKPP male was the first to copulate with a KPPWT female in small cage mating competition assays. b The mean (± standard deviation) proportion of mated recaptured females that were found to be inseminated by DsRed-tagged sperm in semi-field mating assays. Data are averaged across each replicate and separated by larval treatment. For each graph, the “overall” treatment group shows the DsRedKPP success rate averaged across all treatments (white bars) versus the corresponding average KPPWT success rate (grey bars)
