Culex quinquefasciatus Holobiont: A Fungal Metagenomic Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Fungal Biology, 2022
Microorganisms associated with mosquitoes have fundamental roles, not only in their nutrition, but also in physiological and immunological processes, and in their adaptation to the environment as well. Studies on mosquito hologenomes have increased significantly during the last years, achieving important advances in the characterization of the “core ...

Inheritance of Permethrin Resistance in Culex quinquefasciatus

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2010
The toxicity of permethrin to different life stages of Culex quinquefasciatus (Say) was examined in three field insecticide resistant strains, HAmCq(G0), MAmCq(G0), and BAmCq(G0); two permethrin selected strains, HAmCq(G8) and MAmCq(G6); and a laboratory susceptible strain, S-Lab.

Susceptibility of aposymbiotic Culex quinquefasciatus to Wuchereria bancrofti

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1983
Abstract Larvae of the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus originating from Kenya were reared in 0.025 mg/ml tetracycline hydrochloride. Some of the resulting progeny were shown, by electron microscopy and crossing experiments, to have been rendered free of the rickettsia like symbiont Wolbachia pipientis and from these progeny, symbiont-free lines were ...

Olfactory memory in the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 2001
Abstract. The cosmotropical urban mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus Say (Diptera: Culicidae) uses chemical cues to locate suitable water pools for oviposition. Although gravid females are innately attracted to or repelled by certain compounds, this study found that an ...

Salivary gland proteins of the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 2000
Several properties of the salivary glands of Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes were analysed. The amount of protein in female salivary glands increased from 0.26 microg on day one after emergence to about 1.4 microg on day seven. The major polypeptides found in the female salivary glands had molecular weights of 35.7, 28.3, and 20.5 kDa.

Cell death and regeneration in the midgut of the mosquito, Culex quinquefasciatus

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2007
Haematophagy, the utilization of blood as food, has evolved independently among insects such as mosquitoes, bedbugs, fleas, and others. Accordingly, several distinct biological adaptations have occurred in order to facilitate the finding, ingestion and digestion of blood from vertebrate sources.

1,3-diglycerides from eggs of Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus and Culex pipiens pipiens

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1973
Abstract 1. 1. Ether washings of egg-rafts of the mosquitoes Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus and C. p. pipiens which attracted ovipositing females of these species were prepared. 2. 2. The largest fraction from each of these extracts consisted of a mixture of estrolide 1,3-diglycerides and could not be distinguished by spectrometric or thin ...

Autogeny in Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus say.

Journal of vector ecology : journal of the Society for Vector Ecology, 2000
Autogeny was observed in a laboratory colony of Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus Say originating from Hyderabad, India. In a strain selected for an autogeny for 15 generations, all females, both mated and unmated, were able to mature eggs although the unmated females were unable to oviposit them.
