FIGURE 3.

Infectious DDVax or MP‐12 detected in bodies from mosquitoes fed on inoculated goats. Aedes or Culex mosquitoes were fed on goats (n = 3 per virus strain) and were held for 7 days prior to determining infectious load by plaque assay (Table 3). Graph shows percentage of bodies at each day post‐inoculation that were CPE positive, indicative of infectious virus. Aedes DDVax, n = 50, 50 and 98 for days 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Aedes MP‐12, n = 64, 60 and 100 for days 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Culex DDVax, n = 11, 8 and 40 for days 1, 2 and 3, respectively, showed no evidence of infectious virus at any timepoint. Culex MP‐12, n = 22, 9 and 56 for days 1, 2 and 3, respectively
