Figure 2

Inhibitory effect of carbohydrates on the development of Plasmodium vivax parasites in Anopheles stephensi mysorensis. The percentage of engorged insects exhibiting (a) ookinetes, (b) oocysts and (c) salivary gland sporozoites is reported as the mean of three independent experiments. For each of the three developmental stages, the number of insects containing parasites in each treatment group was statistically compared with the corresponding control using the Chi Squared test (* P < 0.05). Numbers in parentheses refer to the sample size (n), i.e. total number of engorged insects.
