Vector competence of northern European Culex pipiens biotypes and hybrids for West Nile virus is differentially affected by temperature

7 Jul 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Outbreaks of West Nile virus (WNV) have not occurred in northern Europe despite nearby circulation of WNV in the southern part of the continent. The main vector for WNV, the mosquito Culex (Cx.) pipiens, consists of two behaviorally distinct biotypes, pipiens and molestus, which can form hybrids. Although temperature has been shown to influence vector competence of Cx. pipiens for WNV and biotypes are...
