Comparison of Wolbachia-infected (F1) and Wolbachia-free (F4) Aedes albopictus mosquitoes at 28 °C by survival rate (a), thorax-abdomen infection rate (b) and salivary gland infection rate (c). Virus titers (mean ± SE) detected in thorax-abdomen (d), salivary glands (e) and head (f) samples with an initial virus titer of 1.63 × 107 PFU/ml (removal of Wolbachia by tetracycline for 3 generations; n = 10 for each dpi; * indicates significant difference by a Fisher’s exact test or a t-test at P < 0.05)
