| pubmed-article:2866696 | pubmed:abstractText | Aedes aegypti mosquitoes originating from different colonies were infected with Tahyna virus by sucking on viraemic newborn mice (peak titre 10(2) X 5 mouse i.c. LD50/0.01 ml). The mosquitoes of laboratory strain "London" proved most susceptible (infection rate 74.2%, transmission rate 60%), while mosquitoes of the laboratory strain "Basel" and strain "Bangkok" (Southeast Asia) were less susceptible (infection rate 23.7 and 17.6%, respectively, transmission rate 6.0 and 10.0%, respectively). Mosquitoes of "Ifakara" strain (East Africa) were found resistant to Tahyna virus infection. | lld:pubmed |
