Infection rate, dissemination and transmission potential of DENV2 QML16 (open symbols) and DENV2 QML22 (closed symbols) in Ae. aegypti mosquitoes. a Infection, dissemination and transmission rates were calculated from the proportion of blood-fed mosquitoes that developed a detectable DENV infection in the bodies, legs/wings and saliva, respectively. b Titres of virus in tissues from infected insects quantified by CCELISA in C6/36 mosquito cells
