WNV replication in Cx. pipiens population collected from Frascati. Comparison of WNV mean titre in infected females of Cx. pipiens from Frascati calculated both by qRT-PCR (a) and by titration on VERO cells (b). Cx. pipiens females were exposed to an infectious blood-meal containing 7.97 PFU/mL of WNV; samples of 5-10 fed females were collected at different days post infection and individually analysed for the presence of WNV in body, legs plus wings and in saliva
