<i>pvs25</i> transcript numbers versus light microscopically determined <i>P</i>. <i>vivax</i> gametocyte counts.
<p>Dilution series were made before storing samples in RNAprotect (5 dilution steps) or after RNA extraction of samples stored in TRIzol (3 dilution steps). Dots represent means of technical triplicates (TRIzol) or quintuplicates (RNAprotect) of dilutions except for the highest concentration (no replicates). Shaded grey shows the CI<sub>95</sub> of the intercept of the regression of compiled sample sets.</p

Relationship between parasite density and probability that a sample is gametocyte positive.
<p>Left: Probability (with CI<sub>95</sub>) that a sample is gametocyte positive vs. parasite density, calculated using a general additive model. Right: correlation between gametocyte density (measured as <i>pfs25</i> or <i>pvs25</i> transcripts/uL) and parasite density by qPCR.</p
Age trends in <i>P</i>. <i>falciparum</i> and <i>P</i>. <i>vivax</i> blood-stage and gametocyte prevalence and density.
