Table 1.
Results of midge feeding on all experimental cohorts. D represents DPI for vertebrate hosts. F represents day of midge feeding; F0 is day of feeding and F10 is 10 days post feeding of the midges. Red numbers indicate positivity in the group. Animals with (*) after their number denote those used as negatives in the BTV10 study (non-terminal), which were subsequently incorporated as positively infected animals in a second experimental cohort. Numbers indicate unique animal identifier. Red animals numbers were inoculated with BTV and green animals numbers were mock inoculated animals. Numbers (#) indicate unique animal identifier. Red animals numbers were inoculated with BTV and green animals numbers were mock inoculated animals.
