Figure 3: Relationship between temperature and parasite development rate for P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. relictum, Haemoproteus and Leucocytozoon obtained using Bayesian modelling as described in the text. The available empirical data (circle), summarised in the Suppl. Table 1, is fitted to the BriƩre equation. The prior distributions for all the estimated parameters are provided in Suppl. Table 2. The solid line is the fit to the empirical data. The bands show the uncertainty (confidence interval) in inferred parameters.
