Detection of KEMV Seg-2 and TBEV envelope genes by real-time RT-PCR in lysates of individual Ixodes ricinus after infection using the artificial feeding system—EL: Engorged Larvae, N: nymphs (N infected at the larval stage) and comparison of mean Ct values for each group (Kruskal–Wallis test, alpha = 5%, *: p value < 0.001). The lower and upper lines represent the lower (Q1) and upper (Q3) quartiles. The median is represented in the diagram and data falling outside the Q1-Q3 range are plotted as outliers of the data (circle).
