wMelM infection reduces DENV‐2 titre and prevalence in virus‐fed Aedes aegypti. Virus titres were quantified from whole bodies (heads removed) from 30 individuals per population. DENV‐2 titres (P = 0.016) and the proportion of DENV‐2 infected females (P = 0.033) were significantly lower in wMelM compared to wMel.tet. Statistical comparisons of DENV‐2 titre were compared using a Mann‐Whitney test where * indicates P < 0.05. Each point on the plot represents an individual infected mosquito (with negative mosquitoes excluded), and lines and error bars denote medians ± 95% CIs. The proportion of DENV‐2 positive mosquitoes out of the total tested (proportion infected) is indicated below each plot.
