Fig. 3From: Differential effects of larval and adult nutrition on female survival, fecundity, and size of the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegyptiSurvival curves between nutritional levels of larval nutrition (a) and adult nutrition (b). Survival probabilities were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and shadow areas represent 95% confidence intervals. HL: high larval nutrition, LL: low larval nutrition, GA: good adult nutrition, PA: poor adult nutrition. The dotted line represents day at median survival for each nutritional level (HL = 25.5, LL = 31.0, GA = 33.0, and PA = 13.0). There was a significant difference in survival probability between GA and PA (Log-rank p < 0.001), while the difference between HL and LL was not significant (Log-rank p = 0.39)Back to article page
