Table 1. Characteristics of the virus strains used in this study.
Table 2. Infection rates, dissemination rates, and transmission rates of Culex quinquefasciatus and Aedes aegypti mosquitoes from Guadeloupe at 7, 14 and 21 days post-infection, calculated for three different ZIKV strains. Blood meal titer was 107 TCID50/ml for all the experiments. Values in bold correspond to rates significantly different between ZIKV strains, mosquito species and days post-infection (Fisher's exact test, P < 0.0001).
Figure 1. Infection rate (± CI) (a), dissemination efficiency (± CI) (b), and transmission efficiency (± CI) (c) of Aedes aegypti from Guadeloupe fed with ZIKV at 7, 14 and 21 days post-infection (dpi). For each modality, a batch of 30 mosquitoes was analysed except for African ZIKV at 14 dpi (N = 25) and 21 dpi (N = 26). Asterisks indicate significant differences between the estimated parameters according to ZIKV strains and dpi (Fisher's exact test; ***: P < 0.0001). ND: Not Detected.
