High insecticide resistance mediated by different mechanisms in Culex quinquefasciatus populations from the city of Yaoundé, Cameroon

Scientific Reports, 2021
Culex mosquitoes particularly Culex quinquefasciatus are important arboviral and filariasis vectors, however despite this important epidemiological role, there is still a paucity of data on their bionomics.

Multiple cytochrome P450 genes: conferring high levels of permethrin resistance in mosquitoes, Culex quinquefasciatus

Scientific Reports, 2021
Insecticides, especially pyrethroids, are the most important in the insect pest control and preventing insect vector-borne human diseases. However, insect pests, including mosquitoes, have developed resistance in the insecticides that used against them ...

Optimized CRISPR tools and site-directed transgenesis towards gene drive development in Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes

Nature Communications, 2021
Culex mosquitoes are a global vector for multiple human and animal diseases, including West Nile virus, lymphatic filariasis, and avian malaria, posing a constant threat to public health, livestock, companion animals, and endangered birds.

The abundance of Culex mosquito vectors for West Nile Virus and other flaviviruses: A time-series analysis of rainfall and temperature dependence in Singapore.

Science of the Total Environment, 2021
Culex mosquitoes are important vectors of West Nile Virus (WNV), St. Louis Encephalitis Virus (SLEV) and Japanese Encephalitis Virus (JEV). Climate change is expected to alter their ability to spread diseases in human populations.

Imaturos de Culicidae (Diptera) encontrados em recipientes instalados em mata residual no munícipio de Londrina, Paraná, Brasil

, 2005
Forest fragments in an urban area were found to be a situable site for Culicidae breeding. This research aims to inventory the Culicidae species that use artificial breeding sites, their coexistence, and the population variation in a fragment forest in ...

NEW RECORDS OF MOSQUITO SPECIES FROM NORTHERN ARGENTINA.

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association
Changes in the ecosystems of vector-borne diseases can make the environment more or less favorable for mosquito vectors, animal reservoirs, and disease transmission. We report for the 1st time Anopheles marajoara in Argentina. In addition, An.

Insecticidal Activity and Biochemical Study of the Clove Oil (Syzygium aromaticum) Nano- Formulation on Culex pipiens L. (Diptera: Culicidae)

, 2021
Mosquitoes can transmit diseases to about 700 million people all over the world (Taubes, 1997). Culex species can transmit a nematode worm (Wuchereria bancrofti), which is responsible for filarial disease (Holder, 1999).
