Correlation between gametocyte transcript numbers and 18S copies by qPCR in P. falciparum (a) and P. vivax (b). A positive correlation was demonstrated between 18S gene copy numbers/µL and gametocyte transcript numbers/µL for a P. falciparum (pfs25) as well as for b P. vivax/pvs25. Linear regression analyses both demonstrated a significance correlation (p < 0.001). Microscopic infections () were showing higher transcripts than submicroscopic infections ()
