Efficacy of IM dsRNA treatment measured by survival percentage after IM WSSV challenge. 48 hours post treatment administration, 100 shrimp in 5 parallel tanks per treatment group were IM challenged with a WSSV dose equivalent to approximately 1000 WSSV genome copies per shrimp. For each group, 4 tanks holding 20 shrimp each were monitored through 10 dpi to assess the efficacy of VP28 dsRNA treatment, and relative survival from these shrimp is here presented in a Kaplan-Meier plot. Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test with Bonferroni correction (α = 0.05/21) was performed on VP28 dsRNA treatment group in comparison to the GFP dsRNA treatment group (p < 0.0001).
