Fig. 1

The fecundity of Anopheles stephensi was significantly decreased by blood feeding on CAP-treated mice. A The counts of laid, total, and retained eggs produced by female mosquitoes after blood feeding on normal mice and CAP-treated mice. The dots represent egg counts. The red horizontal line represents the median egg count. B The gravidity rates of mosquitoes in the control and CAP groups. C The oviposition rates of the mosquitoes in the control and CAP groups. D The hatching rates of the laid eggs from the control and CAP groups. E The pupation rates of the larvae from the control and CAP groups. F The emergence rates of the pupae from the control and CAP groups. **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ns, no significant difference
