Susceptibility to Organophosphates in Culex quinquefasciatus from Colombia
Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2022 ABSTRACT Susceptibility to organophosphates was evaluated in 2 populations of Culex quinquefasciatus from the department of Atlantico, Colombia. Bioassays for temephos, malathion, and pirimiphos-methyl were performed with 3rd-stage larvae and adult females of Cx. quinquefasciatus from the municipalities of Soledad and Puerto Colombia, following

Vitellogenin genes are transcribed in Culex quinquefasciatus ovary
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2023 Culex quinquefasciatus, a cosmopolitan, domestic, and highly anthropophilic mosquito, is a vector of pathogenic arboviruses such as West Nile virus and Rift Valley virus, as well as lymphatic filariasis. The current knowledge on its reproductive physiology regarding vitellogenin expression in different tissues is still limited.In this study, we ...

Culex quinquefasciatus vitellogenesis: morphological and biochemical aspects [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2010 The vitellogenic process in Culex quinquefasciatus, which is triggered by a blood meal, involves the synthesis, distribution and storage of the nutrients necessary for embryo development. The fat body of an adult female Cx. quinquefasciatus revealed two cell types: large trophocytes and small, eosinophilic, "oenocyte-like" cells, which show no ...

Insecticide resistance status in Culex quinquefasciatus in Benin [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2015 Culex quinquefasciatus, an arboviral and filarial vector, is present year round in several cities of the Republic of Benin. There is more information on the resistance status to malaria vectors compared to Culicines. It is therefore unfortunate that the international focus is on Anopheles control and not so much done against Cx.

Response of Culex quinquefasciatus to visual stimuli.
Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 1997 The vision of Culex quinquefasciatus was studied in the laboratory. The attractiveness of colors (black, white, brown, yellow, blue, a skin tone) was evaluated with respect to the collection of Cx. quinquefasciatus in natural light, in the dark, and in ultraviolet light.
