Salivary gland infection and transmission rates of Ae. aegytpi infected with host cell-adapted Zika virus. Salivary glands infection rates of Ae. aegytpi challenged with host cell-adapted Zika virus at a 14 days and b 21 days after infectious blood meal (Kruskal-Wallis test, X2 = 1.129, df = 3, P ≥ 0.05 and X2 = 1.858, df = 2, P ≥ 0.05, respectively). Transmission rates of Ae. aegypti challenged with host cell-adapted Zika virus at c 14 days and d 21 days after infectious blood meal (Mann-Whitney U-test, Z = 1.449, P ≥ 0.05 and Z = − 0.062, P ≥ 0.05, respectively). Bars with the same letter are not statistically significant
