Fig. 9From: Transinfection of buffalo flies (Haematobia irritans exigua) with Wolbachia and effect on host biologyFecundity of buffalo flies post-pupal injection with Wolbachia. Flies started laying eggs from day 3 post-emergence and continued until day 16. Eggs laid from triplicate cages each having ten females was recorded every day for (a) wAlbB (b) wMel and (c) wMelPop. (d) A significant difference between the total number of eggs laid per female over 13 days was found in flies infected with wAlbB (P = 0.0123), wMel (P = 0.0052) and wMelPop (P = 0.0051) (Tukey’s multiple comparison test)Back to article page
