From: Response of the mosquito protein interaction network to dengue infection
Validation of dengue-mosquito interactions in Ae. aegypti for the selected genes by RNAi. Dengue virus loads were assayed in the midguts of gene silenced mosquitoes, GFP dsRNA treated and non-injected control mosquitoes. The infection was measured by plaque assay in C6/36 cell and the value was shown as viral titer (PFU) per midgut. *, P < 0.05, in Mann-Whiteney U test compared to GFP control. Primary data for the plaque assay are presented in Additional file 8. Pos ctrl, positive control; neg ctrl, negative control.
