RESPONSE OF Culex quinquefasciatus LARVAE TO THREE INSECTICIDES
The adult females of Culex quinquefasciatus are vectors responsible for transmission of different arboviruses and lymphatic filariasis. The mosquito has anthropophilic and endophilics habits, their larvae develop in almost all habitats modified by humans. Different insecticides groups such as organophosphates, carbamates, and pyrethroids have been widely used in mosquito control, but in some pl...
متن کاملDsRed2 transient expression in Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes
Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes have been successfully genetically modified only once, despite the efforts of several laboratories to transform and establish a stable strain. We have developed a transient gene expression method, in Culex, that delivers plasmid DNA directly to the mosquito haemolymph and additional tissues. We were able to express DsRed2 fluorescent protein in adult Cx. quinqu...
متن کامل[Susceptibility of Culex quinquefasciatus larvae to different insecticides].
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to assess the susceptibility of Culex quinquefasciatus larvae to two pyrethroids (Cypermethrin and Deltamethrin), two derivatives of Avermectin (Ivermectin and Abamectin) and an organophosphate (Temephos). METHODS Third- and fourth-instar larvae of C. quinquefasciatus were exposed to different concentrations of insecticides (eleven repetitions) according to the W...

متن کاملCulex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes do not support replication of Zika virus.
The rapid spread of Zika virus (ZIKV) in the Americas raised many questions about the role of Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes in transmission, in addition to the key role played by the vector Aedes aegypti. Here we analysed the competence of Cx. quinquefasciatus (with or without Wolbachia endosymbionts) for a ZIKV isolate. We also examined the induction of RNA interference pathways after vira...
