Molecular and physiological characterization of the chitin synthase B gene isolated from Culex pipiens pallens (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2019 Background The growth and development of insects is strictly dependent on the precise regulation of chitin synthase (CHS), which is absent in vertebrates and plants. Therefore, CHS represents an attractive target for insecticides.

Sporogony and sporozoite rates of avian malaria parasites in wild Culex pipiens pallens and C. inatomii in Japan [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2015 Background Malaria infection in mosquitoes is traditionally detected by microscopic examination for Plasmodium oocysts and sporozoites. Although PCR is now widely used, the presence of parasite DNA in a mosquito does not prove that sporogony is achieved.
