Fig. 3: Acclimation to heat increases Ae. albopictus resistance.

From: Prolonged exposure to heat enhances mosquito tolerance to viral infection

Fig. 3

A Bar plot showing prevalence of infection as percentage of infected mosquitoes in relation to CFAV doses 3 dpi. B Quantification of CFAV genomes in relation to doses of injected CFAV 3 dpi. C Bar plot showing prevalence of infection as percentage of infected mosquitoes in relation to CFAV doses 5 dpi. D Quantification of CFAV genomes in relation to doses of injected CFAV 5 dpi. Data for warm-acclimated mosquitoes are in pink, warm-evolved mosquitoes in red and mosquitoes kept under standard conditions in blue. In plots B and D, each point represents data from an individual mosquito; black solid lines and bars are the median of viral load and the 95% confidence intervals, respectively.
