LiCPA mutant infectivity in vivo. Hamsters were infected with wild type (WT), CPA null mutant (ΔLicpa C1) or re-expresser clone (ΔLicpa C1::CPA) of L. infantum. The parasite burden in spleen and liver was determined by limiting dilution culturing at one, three and six months post infection (1, 3 or 6 m.p.i.). Results are shown as the average parasite burden per group; error bars indicate the standard deviation.
