The effect of male genotype (Plasmodium-refractory vs. Plasmodium-susceptible) and block (black vs. red) on (a) the proportion of inseminated females, (b) the proportion of females with motile sperm in their spermathecae 14 days after mating, (c) the proportion of females that oviposited at least once, and (d) the mean number of eggs per batch. Shown are the medians (bold line), the 25th and 75th percentile (edges of the box) and the minimum and maximum values (whiskers). Each box plot is based on 4 cages.
