A. dorsalis cells were evaluated for their susceptibility to California encephalitis (CE) virus, a bunyavirus and 13 other viruses (6 bunyaviruses, 5 togaviruses and 2 rhabdoviruses). Those viruses naturally vectored by mosquitoes (CE, Jamestown Canyon, Trivittatus, Turlock, Hart Park, Western equine encephalomyelitis and St. Louis encephalitis) and by Culicoides (Lokern, Main Drain and Buttonwillow) grew well in A. dorsalis cells. A tick-borne virus (Powassan) and 2 nonarthropod-borne viruses (Modoc and Rio Bravo) failed to replicate. The 2 rhabdoviruses Kern Canyon and Hart Park, grew in the A. dorsalis cultures, but multiplication occurred only after a 3 day latent period. Kern Canyon virus (insect vector, if any, unknown) is not previously reported to replicate in mosquito cells. None of the viruses that grew in the mosquito cells produced overt cytopathic effects. Two subpopulations of A. dorsalis cells were more susceptible than parental cells to CE virus by infectivity and immunofluorescent-antibody assays.
