Plasmodium berghei infections. Females from both insectaries (BLOODless diet and Blood) fed on a P. berghei-infected CD1 mouse along different generations. (A) The rate of the infection is represented by the percentage of infected females. This value was calculated by investigating the presence or absence of parasite oocysts on females’ midguts. (B) The average number of oocysts present on the midguts of infected females was counted, revealing the infection intensity.
