Anopheles darlingi infected with Plasmodium vivax blood samples with serum replacement. (A, B) P. vivax oocyst intensity and sporozoite intensity of An. darlingi fed on whole blood (WB) and fed on blood with serum replacement (SR). (C) Prevalence of infection in both experimental groups. n indicates the number of mosquitoes used in analyses. The dotted line indicates the median; gray = WB and orange = SR. (D) Survival curve of mosquitoes fed on whole blood (WB) and fed on blood with serum replacement (SR). (E) Blood feeding rate of An. darlingi fed on whole blood (WB) and blood with serum replacement (SR).
