Fig. 5From: Vector competence is strongly affected by a small deletion or point mutations in bluetongue virusInfection, replication and dissemination of wtBTV11 after feeding with different virus doses. Colonized C. sonorensis were fed with blood containing different virus titers of wild type (wt) BTV11, L: 105.1 TCID50/ml; M: 106.3 TCID50/ml; H: 108.2 TCID50/ml. Viral RNA was detected and semi-quantitated by PCR expressed in Cq values for individual bodies (circles) and heads (squares) at 0 and 10 dpf. The mean Cq value (bars) and percentage of PCR-positives of each group are indicatedBack to article page
