Partial masculinization of Aedes aegypti females by conditional expression of Nix
Fig 5
Transgenic females displaying higher masculinization have higher mortality.
Survival curves of transgenic (A) transgenic females (at least 100 individuals per transgenic line) and (B) males (at least 75 individuals per transgenic line) and Liverpool strain (150 females and 75 males) in a total of 38 days of observation. Log-rank test was used to determine P values and statistical significance was determined after the Bonferroni method to correct for multiple testing. *: P < .07.
