Multiplicity of infection in different locations in Madagascar. The mean of the multiplicity of infection (MOI) and its 95% confidence interval (CI 95%) at each study sites (a) and between costal and highland study sites in Madagascar (b). For each samples, the MOI was determined by the highest number of clones found by one of the six microsatellites genotyped. The MOI was significantly higher in the coast than in the highlands (*Mann Whitney test, p = 0.005) but no significant difference was found between each site (Kruskal Wallis test, p = 0.065).
