Densities of <i>Wolbachia w</i>AlbA and <i>w</i>AlbB strains in the bodies in <i>Aedes albopictus</i> mosquitoes from Reunion Island.

<p>The mosquitoes of F<sub>0</sub> generation from four populations (N = 75) namely Sainte-Marie (F0_SM), Saint-Gilles les Hauts (F0_SG), Saint-Philippe (F0_SPh) and Saint-André (F0_SA) were tested for their <i>Wolbachia</i> densities after being exposed to infectious blood meals containing the DENV-1 strain. For each sample, the value provided corresponds to the mean of a triplicate measure. The densities of <i>Wolbachia w</i>AlbA (orange), or <i>w</i>AlbB (green), or <i>w</i>AlbTot (<i>w</i>AlbA + <i>w</i>AlbB) (violet), are given based on the ratio between the <i>Wolbachia</i> and RSP7 concentrations which provided the number of <i>Wolbachia</i> genomes relative to the <i>Ae</i>. <i>albopictus</i> genomes. dpe = days post-exposure.</p> <p>(DOC)</p>
