Genomic differentiation and intercontinental population structure of mosquito vectorsCulex pipiens pipiensandCulex pipiens molestus [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractUnderstanding the population structure and mechanisms of taxa diversification is important for organisms responsible for the transmission of human diseases. Two vectors of West Nile virus,Culex pipiens pipiensandCx. p. molestus, exhibit epidemiologically important behavioral and physiological differences, but the whole-genome divergence between

Comparative susceptibility of mosquito populations in North Queensland, Australia to oral infection with dengue virus. [PDF]

, 2014
Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne virus, with at least 40% of the world's population at risk of infection each year. In Australia, dengue is not endemic, but viremic travelers trigger outbreaks involving hundreds of cases.

Characterizing seasonal changes in the reproductive activity of Culex mosquitoes throughout the fall, winter, and spring in Ohio

Parasites & Vectors, 2023
Background Culex mosquitoes are the primary vectors of West Nile virus (WNV) across the USA. Understanding when these vectors are active indicates times when WNV transmission can occur. This study determined the proportion of female Culex mosquitoes that

Culex tarsalis is a competent vector species for Cache Valley virus [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Cache Valley virus (CVV) is a mosquito-borne orthobunyavirus endemic in North America. The virus is an important agricultural pathogen leading to abortion and embryonic lethality in ruminant species, especially sheep.

Culex pipiens and Culex torrentium populations from Central Europe are susceptible to West Nile virus infection

One Health, 2016
West Nile virus (WNV), a Flavivirus with an avian primary host, is already widespread in Europe and might also pose an infection risk to Germany, should competent mosquito vectors be present.
