From: Molecular analysis of photic inhibition of blood-feeding in Anopheles gambiae
The effect of gene silencing on blood-feeding propensity of adult female mosquitoes. A. The percentage of gene silenced mosquitoes that fed (black bar) and that did not feed (white bar) upon blood provision after injection of dsRNA. The difference between the broken line (corresponding to GFP control) and the top end of the bar for the fed mosquitoes of each silenced genes represents the percentage change in feeding propensity compared to the GFP control. B. The fold change in feeding inhibition (non-fed) of the gene silenced mosquitoes with respect to the GFP dsRNA treated control mosquitoes. The standard error for three replicate assays is indicated with bars. The significant ones are marked with an asterisk.
