S2 Fig. Parasite rhythms are inverted in hosts fed in the day versus night. The proportion of parasites at early trophozoite, mid trophozoite and late trophozoite stages (ring stages are presented in Fig 3B) according to the feeding treatment of their hosts (light fed mice, red, and dark fed mice, blue). White and grey bars indicate lights on and lights off, respectively for both groups of mice (lights on ZT 0 and lights off ZT 12). Sampling occurred every 6 hours during days 6-8 post infection with means (± SEM, shaded area, N=10) plotted for each treatment group.
