[Comparative study of dengue 2 virus replication and isoenzymes in two strains of Aedes aegypti].

This study, dealing with two strains of Aedes aegypti from Vietnam and French Guiana, shows the variability of the genes coding for 11 isoenzymatic systems and the replication of the dengue 2 virus in parenterally infected mosquitoes. Slight differences are observed in the characteristics of viral replication. No clear correlation is shown with enzymatic patterns which appear widely different from one strain to the other with four of the enzymes studied.
