Predicted regression for each isolate–dose combination is shown. A) Ticks fed on African swine fever virus (ASFV) strain OUR T88/1 at 4 log10 50% hemadsorbing doses (HAD50)/mL. B) Ticks fed on ASFV strain OUR T88/1 at 6 log10 HAD50/mL. C) Ticks fed on ASFV strain Georgia 2007/1 at 4 log10 HAD50/mL. D) Ticks fed on ASFV strain Georgia 2007/1 at 6 log10 HAD50/mL. Crosses indicate experimental results, and solid line indicates model prediction. Dashed horizontal lines show the limits of the tissue culture sensitivity (lower limit 1.8 log10 HAD50 and upper limit 9.8 log10 HAD50).
