From: Substitution of the premembrane and envelope protein genes of Modoc virus with the homologous sequences of West Nile virus generates a chimeric virus that replicates in vertebrate but not mosquito cells

Comparison of the replication kinetics of MODV-WNV(prM-E), MODV and WNV in Vero cells. Subconfluent monolayers of Vero cells were inoculated with MODV-WNV(prM-E), MODV and WNV at a m.o.i of 0.1. Supernatants were collected daily for 7 days and tested by plaque assay. MODV-WNV(prM-E) had been passaged once in BHK-21 cells and once in Vero cells prior to the experiments.
