a–k, T-cell subsets by scRNA-seq (2 dpc) of prime-boost-vaccinated hamsters. Frequencies and numbers of (a) CD4 (cluster 0,1,2) and CD8 (cluster 3,4) T cells, and (b) proliferating T cells (cluster 6) in blood. Bar graph with mean ± s.e.m., n = 3 for all groups, except nmock+mock = 4. Ordinary one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. c, Dot plots showing expression of selected genes in blood cluster 6 (T and NK subcluster analysis in Supplementary Fig. 7a). Dot size represents fraction of cells with UMI > 1, colour indicates expression. d, IFN-γ ELISpot analysis 14 d post prime vaccination. Bar graph with mean ± s.e.m., n = 6, displaying spot counts normalized to medium stimulation for each animal, individually. Dotted line, upper limit of detection (ULD). Two-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. e–g, Frequencies and numbers of (e) tissue-resident memory T cells (Trm, cluster 6), (f) activated T cells (Act T, cluster 2) and (g) proliferating T cells (prolif T cells, cluster 5 + 8) in lungs. Ordinary one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. Bar graph with mean ± s.e.m., n = 3 for all groups, except nmock+mock = 4. In a,b,d–g: *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001. h, Dot plots showing expression of selected genes in lungs, clusters 5 and 8 (T and NK subcluster analysis in Supplementary Fig. 9a). Dot size represents fraction of cells with UMI > 1, colour indicates expression. i,j, Trm gene set (refs. 28,31) signature score in cells from selected T-cell subclusters over all groups (i) and for individual groups (j), colour indicates signature score for Trm gene set. k, Trm signature score in cells of cluster 5. Centre, median; box, 25th to 75th percentiles; and whiskers, minimum to maximum values. Circles indicate individual analysed cells in cluster 5 pooled from n = 3 for all groups, except nmock+mock = 4 animals. l, PAGA. Nodes represent clusters, edges represent extent of cluster connection, node size corresponds to cluster cell number and line thickness is proportional to connectivity. m, Trm signature (refs. 28,31) score as a function of diffusion pseudotime rank, with black line showing a polynomial fit of degree three.
