Biolarvacide of Culex quinquefasciatus
Biolarvicide is the larvicide derived from plants and relatively safe. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of pletekan leaf powder (Ruellia tuberosa), mimosa (Mimosa pudica), papaya (Carica papaya), and guava (Psidium guajava) on Culex quiquefasciatus larval mortality.

Avian malaria co-infections confound infectivity and vector competence assays of Plasmodium homopolare. [PDF]
Currently, there are very few studies of avian malaria that investigate relationships among the host-vector-parasite triad concomitantly. In the current study, we experimentally measured the vector competence of several Culex mosquitoes for a newly ...

Population genetics of neotropical Culex quinquefasciatus (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
يمكن العثور على بعوضة الباعوضة الخماسية الفاشية في كل مدينة رئيسية في البرازيل تقريبًا وهي ناقلات لداء الخيطيات والعديد من الفيروسات الشجرية. تم استخدام علامات الأقمار الصناعية الدقيقة على نطاق واسع للكشف عن البنية الوراثية لمجموعات مختلفة من مجموعات الحشرات. كان الهدف من هذه الدراسة هو إلقاء نظرة على البنية الوراثية لـ Cx. quinquefasciatus في البرازيل.

Reverse chemical ecology approach for the identification of an oviposition attractant for Culex quinquefasciatus. [PDF]
Pheromones and other semiochemicals play a crucial role in today's integrated pest and vector management strategies. These semiochemicals are typically discovered by bioassay-guided approaches.

Genetic-morphometric variation in Culex quinquefasciatus from Brazil and La Plata, Argentina
Variation among natural populations of Culex (Culex) quinquefasciatus Say is associated with different vectorial capacities. The species Cx. quinquefasciatus is present in the equatorial, tropical and subtropical zones in the Brazilian territory, with ...
