Susceptibility to Organophosphates in Culex quinquefasciatus from Colombia

open access: yesJournal 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

Comparative susceptibility of mosquito populations in North Queensland, Australia to oral infection with dengue virus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne virus, with at least 40% of the world's population at risk of infection each year. In Australia, dengue is not endemic, but viremic travelers trigger outbreaks involving hundreds of cases.

Vitellogenin genes are transcribed in Culex quinquefasciatus ovary

open access: yesMemórias 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 ...

Avian malaria co-infections confound infectivity and vector competence assays of Plasmodium homopolare. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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 vitellogenesis: morphological and biochemical aspects [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias 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 ...

Effectivity Test of Tobacco Leaf (nicotiana tabacum l.) 96% Ethanol Extract on Culex Quinquefasciatus Larvae Mortality

open access: yesSaintika Medika, 2020
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
