Fig. 4

Partial rank correlation coefficients of the parameter values with the final proportion of Ae. albopictus at 2000 days. The stars indicate significance with a p-value < 0.00001. The top plot shows the PRCC with the LHS with all parasitism parameters set to 1 (\(\gamma _{d_a} =\gamma _{m_a} =\gamma _{b_a} =1\)), indicating no parasitism. The bottom plot is the PRCC with variation of parasitism included in the LHS for Ae. albopictus. Parasitism on Ae. triseriatus is low. Red bars (left side) are parameters associated with Ae. albopictus, and blue bars (right side) with Ae. triseriatus. Parasitism parameters on Ae. albopictus, which only occur in the bottom plot, are shown by purple bars (middle). For each grouping, parameters are ordered from the least to greatest effect when including parasitism. The PRCC for parameter values with high Ae. triseriatus parasitism is found in Additional file 1: Figure S5
