Visualizing barcode dynamics across bottlenecks

(A) bcWNV barcode dynamics during mosquito infection in individual Cx. tarsalis, Cx. quinquefasciatus, and Ae. aegypti mosquitoes at days 8 and 12 post-infection. Barcodes were ranked from most to least frequent by each midgut sample. Color represents barcode rank and is not consistent across graphs. MG = midgut, SG = salivary glands, SL = saliva.

(B) bcWNV barcode maintenance in all midgut samples containing detectable barcodes, at each timepoint post-bloodfeed in Cx. tarsalis, Cx. quinquefasciatus, and Ae. aegypti mosquitoes. Barcodes were ranked from most to least frequent by the input population. Color represents both barcode rank and barcode sequence and is consistent within and across graphs.
