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.

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.

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 ...

Culex quinquefasciatus acts as a vector for Filariasis disease. The transmission of this disease can be prevented by cutting the life cycle of these mosquitoes at the larvae phase. Tobacco leaf contains an alkaloid, flavonoid, essential oil, saponin, and

Advantages and Limitations of Commercially Available Electrocuting Grids for Studying Mosquito Behaviour. [PDF]
Mosquito feeding behaviour plays a major role in determining malaria transmission intensity and the impact of specific prevention measures. Human Landing Catch (HLC) is currently the only method that can directly and consistently measure the biting rates

Color, Bacteria, and Mosquito Eggs as Ovipositional Attractants for \u3ci\u3eAedes Aegypti\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3eAedes Albopictus\u3c/i\u3e (Diptera: Culicidae) [PDF]
Selected bacterial washes, color, and mosquito eggs were comparatively examined as ovipositional attractants for Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Any evidence of additive activity was noted.

Susceptibility to Organophosphates in Culex quinquefasciatus from Colombia
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

Vector competence of Anopheles and Culex mosquitoes for Zika virus [PDF]
Zika virus is a newly emergent mosquito-borne flavivirus that has caused recent large outbreaks in the new world, leading to dramatic increases in serious disease pathology including Guillain-Barre syndrome, newborn microcephaly, and infant brain damage.

Characterization of a broad-based mosquito yeast interfering RNA larvicide with a conserved target site in mosquito semaphorin-1a genes [PDF]
BACKGROUND: RNA interference (RNAi), which has facilitated functional characterization of mosquito neural development genes such as the axon guidance regulator semaphorin-1a (sema1a), could one day be applied as a new means of vector control ...
