Peak viremia as a function of age of ducklings and chicks when infected with Japanese encephalitis virus. The graph plots the peak viremia observed in each of the chicks and ducklings against the age of the bird at infection. The vertical axis is on a logarithmic scale so that the fitted model is presented as a straight line. The underlying equation is PFUPEAK = α×βAGE, which transforms to log10(PFUPEAK) = log10(α)+log10(β)×AGE, where AGE is the age of the bird at infection. PFU = plaque-forming units.
