Experiments made by inoculating the contents of flies into susceptible animals at various periods after an infective meal have given concordant results with those just mentioned.
We stimulated the melanization response by inoculating a bead into the mosquito's thorax (this site was chosen for practical reasons).
In the field, it is extremely unlikely that naturally infected hosts experience this range of inoculating doses.
The latter we label performance errors and view them as inoculating against attributions of irrationality.
Similarly, parasite fecundity is affected by the density of the inoculating dose, but only as an infection proceeds.
Density is the inoculating dose given to a host.
Thus, the probability of a parasitic female establishing in the gut is independent of size of inoculating dose.
However, since slightly more deviance is explained by inoculating dose than by the number of parasitic females we provide this in the preferred minimal model.
