Table 1 Summary of ANOVA performed in the physiological experiments, using electroantenogram (EAG), electropalpogram (EPG), or single-sensillum recording (SSR).

From: Reduction in host-finding behaviour in fungus-infected mosquitoes is correlated with reduction in olfactory receptor neuron responsiveness
