  1. This table shows the average survival time (AST) ± standard deviation of Balb/c mice after inoculation with the WNV NY99, PR423 and PR20wh. The student t-test analysis showed a significantly lower AST in the C6/36-derived PR423 group when compared to C6/36-derived NY99 (p = 0.013*) and Vero-derived PR423 strains (p < 0.001**)
  2. AST average survival time, SD standard deviation, PR423 and PR20wh, Puerto Rico WNV isolatesWNV = West Nile virus
