Little brown bats (Myotis lucifugus) coinfected with M. lucifugus coronavirus (Myl-CoV) and Pseudogymnoascus destructans produce more antibodies against Myl-CoV than bats infected only with Myl-CoV. (A) Diagram summarizes the four treatments; the red arrow shows the two groups between which antibody levels were compared. (B) Antibody levels against the Myl-CoV N protein detected by antibody capture ELISA expressed as optical density (O.D.) values at 405 nm. Co-infected bats had significantly higher antibody levels than bats infected only with Myl-CoV (independent Mann Whitney test; p value = 0.03).
