Correlation between oocyst infection and sporozoite production. Mosquito infection rate and intensity for experimental mosquito feedings using unwashed and serum replaced (washed) blood were measured. Correlation between sporozoite infection and oocyst infection rates are shown in A for unwashed blood and B for washed blood feedings. Correlation between oocyst and sporozoite loads for unwashed and washed blood are shown in (C) and (D), respectively. Correlations between oocyst and sporozoite infection rates and between average oocyst and sporozoite loads were tested using Spearman’s correlation
