Infection of SHTV and/or MERV suppressed ZIKV growth kinetics in C6/36 cells. Growth kinetics of Zika virus (ZIKV) in C6/36 ECACC strain infected with Shinobi tetravirus (SHTV) and/or Menghai rhabdovirus (MERV). Cells were infected with ZIKV at a multiplicity of infection of 0.01, and the viral titers in the supernatants were determined by plaque assay. Blue: naive C6/36 ECACC strain, Red: SHTV-infected C6/36 ECACC strain, Green: MERV-infected C6/36 ECACC strain, and Yellow: SHTV- and MERV-infected C6/36 ECACC strain.
