Culex pipiens (Diptera: Culicidae): a bridge vector of West Nile virus to humans.
Host-feeding patterns of Culex pipiens L. collected in southwest suburban Chicago in 2005 were studied using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and DNA sequencing techniques. Culex spp. mosquitoes, most identified to Cx. pipiens and the remainder to Cx. restuans by PCR, had fed on 18 avian species, most commonly American robin (Turdus migratorious), house sparrow (Passer domesticus), and mourning ...
متن کاملCulex pipiens and Culex torrentium populations from Central Europe are susceptible to West Nile virus infection
West Nile virus (WNV), a Flavivirus with an avian primary host, is already widespread in Europe and might also pose an infection risk to Germany, should competent mosquito vectors be present. Therefore, we analysed the ability of WNV to infect German Culex mosquitoes with special emphasis on field collected specimens of Culex torrentium and Culex pipiens biotype pipiens. We collected egg rafts ...
متن کاملevaluation of some plant fruit extracts for the control of west nile virus vector culex pipiens (diptera: culicidae)
background: the extracts of different parts of plants were found very effective against various pests. the aim of this research was to determine the insecticidal activity of fruit methanol extracts obtained from melia azedarach (meliaceae), phoenix theophrasti (arecaceae), styphnolobium japonicum (fabaceae) and pyracantha coccinea (rosaceae) against the larvae of culex pipiens (diptera: culici...
متن کاملMicrosatellite loci from the northern house mosquito ( Culex pipiens ), a principal vector of West Nile virus in North America
Microsatellites were isolated and characterized in the northern house mosquito, Culex pipiens , a widespread pest species and important vector of diseases such as West Nile virus. An enrichment protocol yielded 150 positive clones. We designed primers to amplify 17 unique (GT) n microsatellites, eight of which amplified cleanly and were polymorphic. A survey of 29 individuals showed that these ...
متن کاملExperimental transmission of West Nile Virus and Rift Valley Fever Virus by Culex pipiens from Lebanon
West Nile virus (WNV) and Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) are two emerging arboviruses transmitted by Culex pipiens species that includes two biotypes: pipiens and molestus. In Lebanon, human cases caused by WNV and RVFV have never been reported. However, the introduction of these viruses in the country is likely to occur through the migratory birds and animal trades. In this study, we evaluated...
