First nationwide surveillance of Culex pipiens complex and Culex torrentium mosquitoes demonstrated the presence of Culex pipiens biotype pipiens/molestus hybrids in Germany. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Mosquitoes and other arthropods may transmit medically important pathogens, in particular viruses such as West Nile virus. The presence of suitable hosts and competent vectors for those zoonotic viruses is essential for an enzootic transmission, which is

Asaia spp. exposure for improving mosquito mass-rearing, and the effects on Culex pipiens pipiens vector competence for West Nile virus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Various vector control strategies are in place to reduce the spread of arthropod-borne viruses. Some of these, such as application of insecticides, are encountering operational challenges and a reduced overall effectiveness due to evolution of resistance.

Reproductive Trade-Offs in Culex pipiens: Effects of CYV Infection and Delayed Mating [PDF]

Insects
Arbovirus control strategies often target vector reproductive dynamics, with insect-specific viruses (ISVs) like Culex Y virus (CYV) offering potential as eco-friendly approaches by influencing mosquito reproduction without affecting humans or animals ...

Characterization of overwintering sites (hibernacula) of the West Nile vector Culex pipiens in Central Italy [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors
Background In cool-temperate regions, mosquitoes face winter conditions that hinder their development. To cope with cold temperatures, species like Culex pipiens, a major vector of West Nile virus (WNV), diapause as adult females in overwintering ...
