Its ecology and biological transmission cycles are scarcely known. Eared doves (\n Zenaida auriculata<\/jats:italic>\n ) have frequently been found infected by SLEV, and therefore, could be suspected as SLEV hosts. Thirty post-hatch-year eared doves were subcutaneously inoculated with the genotype V SLEV 78V-6507 viral strain and subsequently bled. No deaths or clinical signs of illness were observed in the inoculated doves. The viremia titers ranged from 2 to 5.5 log\n 10<\/jats:sub>\n plaque-forming units (PFU)\/mL during 1\u20137 days postinoculation (dpi), the highest being observed on the 4th dpi. Mosquitoes were collected using can traps baited with chicken and eared doves for comparison. A total of 2792 mosquitoes belonging to 5 species were collected. Ninety percent of the mosquitoes collected in eared dove-baited can traps were\n Culex quinquefasciatus<\/jats:italic>\n . Statistical differences were not observed in either\n Cx. quinquefasciatus<\/jats:italic>\n (\n X<\/jats:italic>\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n = 0.86; df = 1;\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.354) or in\n Cx. interfor<\/jats:italic>\n (\n X<\/jats:italic>\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n = 0.63; df = 1;\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.426) mosquitoes collected in both chicken- and eared dove-baited can traps. Considering that eared doves were frequently found naturally infected by SLEV, that they developed viremia titers higher than the minimum infection threshold needed to infect\n Cx. quinquefasciatus<\/jats:italic>\n , and that these mosquitoes also fed on eared doves, they could be considered competent hosts for SLEV.\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1089\/vbz.2007.0168","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,4,1]],"date-time":"2008-04-01T10:34:32Z","timestamp":1207046072000},"page":"277-282","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Eared Dove (\n Zenaida Auriculata<\/i>\n , Columbidae) as Host for St. Louis Encephalitis Virus (Flaviviridae,\n Flavivirus<\/i>\n )"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Luis A.","family":"Diaz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratorio Arbovirus, Instituto de Virolog\u00eda \u201cDr. J.
