Knockdown resistance (kdr)-associated organochlorine resistance in mosquito-borne diseases (Culex pipiens): A systematic review and meta-analysis

Heliyon
Background: Culex pipiens is the vector of a large number of pathogens in humans. Use of insecticides to deal with this vector is the most important way to controlling it.

West Nile Virus Lineage 2 Vector Competence of Indigenous Culex and Aedes Mosquitoes from Germany at Temperate Climate Conditions

Viruses, 2020
West Nile virus (WNV) is a widespread zoonotic arbovirus and a threat to public health in Germany since its first emergence in 2018. It has become of particular relevance in Germany in 2019 due to its rapid geographical spread and the detection of the ...

Genetic Diversity and Phylogenetic Relationships of Mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) in Central Nepal

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study presents a molecular survey of mosquitoes in central Nepal, analyzing 18 species across eight genera using mitochondrial COI sequencing. The results revealed significant genetic divergence, clarify phylogenetic relationships, and confirm the presence of newly recorded species, including Aedes japonicus, Anopheles farauti, and Culex sasai ...

Urban socioeconomic, vegetation, and mosquito interactions in the United States: Current research and future directions

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract With the introduction and adaptation of non‐native mosquitoes to cities, vector‐borne diseases are emerging concerns in the United States of America. A growing body of literature suggests that mosquito infestations and associated diseases are a greater burden in socioeconomically disadvantaged areas within the heterogeneous urban ecosystem ...

Culex pipiens and Culex restuans egg rafts harbor diverse bacterial communities compared to their midgut tissues

Parasites & Vectors, 2020
Background The bacterial communities associated with mosquito eggs are an essential component of the mosquito microbiota, yet there are few studies characterizing and comparing the microbiota of mosquito eggs to other host tissues.

Biochemical Responses of Anopheles spp. Larvae to a Novel Brazilian BR101 Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis Formulation: Oxidative Stress, Detoxification Enzymes, and Safety for Nontarget Notonectidae and Gerridae Aquatic Insects

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
Bti BR101 exhibits strong larvicidal activity against Anopheles larvae spp., with dose‐dependent mortality and LC50 of 3.13 µg/mL. Bti increases ROS, lipid and protein oxidation, and activates antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GPx) and detoxification pathways (MFO and esterases), indicating moderate oxidative stress.

Host attraction and host feeding patterns indicate generalist feeding of Culex pipiens s.s. and Cx. torrentium

Parasites & Vectors
Background Mosquito host feeding patterns are an important factor of the species-specific vector capacity determining pathogen transmission routes. Culex pipiens s.s./Cx.

Larvicidal Activity of Nerium oleander against Larvae West Nile Vector Mosquito Culex pipiens (Diptera: Culicidae)

Journal of Parasitology Research, 2015
Background. Outbreaks of the West Nile virus infection were reported in Morocco in 1996, 2003, and 2010. Culex pipiens was strongly suspected as the vector responsible for transmission.
