The YFV capsid is a suppressor of RNA silencing. (A and C) Survival curves for Liverpool strain WT Ae. aegypti (A) and dcr-2 null mutant mosquitoes (C) infected with either recombinant SINV expressing YFC (red triangles) or virus containing a nontranslatable version of the YFC sequence (black circles). Survival curves represent cohorts of ≥30 adult female mosquitoes injected with 500 pfu of virus. (B and D) Accumulation of viral RNA in WT mosquitoes (B) and dcr-2 mutants (D) infected with recombinant SINV expressing YFC or virus containing a nontranslatable YFC sequence. Error bars for RT-PCR results indicate the SEM among three independent biological replicates (n = 5 per replicate).
