Microsatellite loci from the northern house mosquito (<i>Culex pipiens</i>), a principal vector of West Nile virus in North America

2003-12-10

Abstract excerpt

Abstract 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 loci are hi...
