Identification of Avian- and Mammalian-Derived Bloodmeals in<i>Aedes vexans</i>and<i>Culiseta melanura</i>(Diptera: Culicidae) and Its Implication for West Nile Virus Transmission in Connecticut, U.S.A.

Abstract excerpt

To evaluate the host-feeding patterns of Aedes vexans (Meigen) and Culiseta melanura (Coquillett) as secondary vectors of West Nile virus (family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus, WNV) in Northeastern United States, we identified the source of vertebrate bloodmeals by sequencing portions of the cytochrome b gene of mitochondrial DNA. Analysis of polymerase chain reaction products from a total of 119 Ae. vexans revea...
