Fig. 3From: Transmission of deformed wing virus between Varroa destructor foundresses, mite offspring and infested honey beesPrincipal component analysis biplot of DWV variant quantifications in mites (Vd) and in bees. The bees and mites from the three different treatments (inoculation with DWV-A, with DWV-B or with PB solution) were analyzed at two time points: right after the inoculation period and at the end of the in vitro rearing period (see Fig. 1). The pre-existing DWV-B infection of pupae resulted in high DWV-B copy number in all three groups so the DWV-B-inoculated and buffer-injected groups were pooled together on this graph since they had the same viral profilesBack to article page
