From: Peculiar liquid-feeding and pathogen transmission behavior of Aedes togoi and comparison with Anopheles sinensis

Figure 4

Variations of wall shear stress (WSS) between Ae. togoi and An. sinensis, as well as the corresponding cumulative proportion in one feeding cycle.

The maximum WSS and average WSS are plotted in inset. A black dotted line indicates the WSS of 0.3 Pa, which is the physiological value required to intake iRBCs through a venule30,31. A red dotted line denotes the WSS of 2.5 Pa required to transport iRBCs adhered to a vessel30. Error bars represents the standard deviation; *P < 0.01.
