Zika virus(ZIKV) has been isolated from mosquitoes such as Aedes, Mansonia uniformis, and Culex perfuscus; However,the isolation of ZIKV from Anopheles sinensis and Culex tritaeniorhynchus has not yet been reported. In June and July2018, 22,985 mosquitoes and 57,500 midges were collected in Jiangxi Province in southeastern China. Among them, six strains of ZIKV were isolated from mosquitoes: four from An. sinensis and two from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus. Molecular genetic analysis showed that the ZIKV isolated from An. sinensis and Cx. tritaeniorhynchus belonged to genotype 2 in the Asian evolutionary branch of ZIKV. In addition, the ZIKV strains isolated from An. sinensis and Cx. tritaeniorhynchus had amino acid substitutions identical to ZIKV strains prevalent in South America since 2015. This study is the first to isolate ZIKV from mosquito specimens collected in the wild of Jiangxi Province, China; This is also the first time that ZIKV has been isolated from An. sinensis and Cx. tritaeniorhynchus. Given that An. sinensis and Cx. tritaeniorhynchus have a very wide geographical distribution in China and even in eastern and southern Asia, the isolation of several strains of ZIKV from these two mosquitoes poses new challenges for the prevention and control of ZIKV infection in the mainland of China and countries and regions with the same distribution of mosquitoes. 相似文献

Since 1983, cases of diseased donkeys and horses with symptoms similar to those produced by alphaviruses were identified in two departments in northern Peru; however serological testing ruled out the presence of those viruses and attempts to isolate an agent were also unproductive. In 1997, also in northern Peru, two new orbiviruses were discovered, each recognized as a causative agent of neurological diseases in livestock and domestic animals and, at the same time, mosquitoes were found to be infected with these viruses. Peruvian horse sickness virus (PHSV) was isolated from pools of culicid mosquitoes, Aedes serratus and Psorophora ferox, and Yunnan virus (YUOV) was isolated from Aedes scapularis in the subtropical jungle (upper jungle) located on the slope between the east side of the Andes and the Amazonian basin in the Department of San Martín. Both viruses later were recovered from mosquitoes collected above the slope between the west side of the Andes and the coast (Department of Piura) in humid subtropical areas associated with the Piura River basin. In this region, PHSV was isolated from Anopheles albimanus and YUOV was isolated from Ae. scapularis. We discuss the ecology of vector mosquitoes during the outbreaks in the areas where these mosquitoes were found. 相似文献

The relative efficiencies of four methods to extract viral RNA from individual dengue-2 virus (D-2V)-infected mosquitoes, Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae), were compared. The most efficient of these methods was then used to extract viral RNA for the preparation of cDNA from the abdomens of six engorged D-2V-infected mosquitoes and sera from three dengue fever (DF) patients collected in an isolated rural town in Colombia. Comparisons of viral envelope (E) gene sequences from each of these strongly suggested that the D-2V population which circulated in this study area was a homogeneous genotype which was unrelated to any of the D-2 viruses isolated from elsewhere in the world. When coupled with our rapid method to identify viruses in individual mosquitoes (Romero-Vivas et al. (1998) Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 12, 101-105), the methodology we describe should be useful for epidemiological and surveillance studies of dengue viruses and other arboviruses. 相似文献

We investigated the potential of entomopathogenic hypocrealean fungi that naturally occur in or on adult mosquitoes for use as biocontrol agents of vector mosquitoes. The fungi were isolated from wild mosquitoes collected in Japan and Burkina Faso using two isolation methods (with and without surface sterilization). Detected fungal species included Beauveria bassiana sensu lato, Isaria spp., Paecilomyces spp., Lecanicillium spp., and Simplicillium spp. These isolates were used in bioassays against adult female Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes. The median survival time ranged from 5.8 to 14.9 d (control, 17.0 d). Reduced survival times were observed in the isolates from surface-sterilized mosquitoes from Japan, with the isolate B. bassiana s.l. 60-2 exhibiting the highest virulence. This study indicates that adult mosquitoes are naturally infected with various entomopathogenic hypocrealean fungi, and that some of these isolates have the potential for use as fungal pesticides to control vector mosquitoes. 相似文献

Following the 1975 epidemic of St. Louis encephalitis (SLE) in Ontario, programs were instituted to monitor virus activity in mosquito populations during 1976 and 1977. Mosquitoes were trapped with CDC light traps and CO2 cone traps, pooled by species, and tested for virus by intracerebral inoculation of suckling mice. In 1976, 51 175 mosquitoes were tested. SLE virus was isolated from two mixed pools of Culex pipiens--C. restuans mosquitoes. Five isolations of California serogroup viruses were made. Three of these were trivittatus virus, which has not been demonstrated previously in Canada, and the other two were snowshoe have virus. Other viruses isolated in 1976 were a virus antigenically identical to the virus of infectious bursal disease of chickens and 34 Flanders viruses. In 1977, 34 428 mosquitoes were tested. Flanders virus was isolated most frequently, from pools of mixed C. pipiens--C. restuans mosquitoes. The only other isolate was a Bunyamwera group virus, Cache Valley virus. This virus has not been reported previously in Ontario. 相似文献

In previous studies we have presented evidence for the role of peptides, isolated from heads of the mosquito Aedes aegypti, in stimulating fluid secretion by isolated Malpighian tubules. In the present study we conducted experiments to investigate whether these peptides are involved in hormone-mediated diuresis after a blood meal. In vivo experiments showed that the head was required to maintain diuresis after the blood meal. Whereas feeding on blood triggered a prompt diuresis in the intact mosquito, subsequent decapitation caused a gradual, not an abrupt, decline in urine excretion rate. Hemolymph collected from mosquitoes fed blood significantly stimulated fluid secretion in vitro by isolated Malpighian tubules, whereas hemolymph from unfed or blood-fed decapitated mosquitoes did not. These results indicate that a diuretic factor was released into the hemolymph after a blood meal. This factor was not present in the hemolymph of decapitated females. We identified the head as a source of diuretic factors. Peptides isolated from a head extract by high-performance liquid chromatography, when injected into the hemocoel of blood-fed decapitated mosquitoes, triggered diuresis in vivo and also stimulated fluid secretion in isolated Malpighian tubules. These studies support the hypothesis that the head is a storage site for diuretic peptides that may be released after a blood meal to control diuresis. 相似文献

An orbivirus of mosquitoes which induces CO2 sensitivity in mosquitoes and is lethal for rabbits. 下载免费PDF全文
An orbivirus, JKT-7400, isolated from Culex mosquitoes in Indonesia, replicated to a high titer and induced cytopathic effects in Aedes albopictus cell cultures. The virus produced lethal sensitivity to carbon dioxide in Culex and Aedes mosquitoes as well as in Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies but was not the agent of the hereditary sensitivity to carbon dioxide previously described for Culex quinquefasciatus. When injected intravenously in high doses, JKT-7400 virus was lethal for rabbits, apparently without replicating to a significant extent. It was not pathogenic for adult mice inoculated intravenously or for adult or suckling mice inoculated intracerebrally and intraperitoneally. Unlike an orbivirus isolated from Culex mosquitoes in China, JKT-7400 did not interfere with the replication of Japanese encephalitis virus in mosquitoes. 相似文献

The melanization response against intrathoracically inoculated Brugia pahangi and Dirofilaria immitis microfilariae (mff) isolated from vertebrate host blood was evaluated in both uninfected Aedes aegypti black-eyed Liverpool strain and in mosquitoes harboring a developing B. pahangi infection. The immune response against inoculated mff of either species was significantly reduced by 28-47% in infected as compared with uninfected mosquitoes. Attempts to passively transfer this suppression factor(s) by inoculating naive mosquitoes with 0.1-0.2 microliter of hemolymph from B. pahangi-infected mosquitoes produced equivocal results. The role this parasite-induced immune suppression might play in aiding parasite survival in compatible vectors is discussed. 相似文献

The mechanism of death in densovirus infected mosquitoes remains unexplored. This study investigated the cellular consequences of densovirus infection in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes after a second generation challenge with a densovirus isolated from adult Aedes albopictus mosquitoes in Thailand (AThDNV). Specimens were analyzed by TUNEL assay, fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and a calorimic assay to detect activation of caspase 3-like activity. After challenge, moribund mosquitoes showed considerable evidence of TUNEL positive cells. The caspase 3-like activity assay showed that the presence of TUNEL positive cells was associated with increased levels of activated caspase 3-like activity in AThDNV infected mosquitoes. 相似文献

Eighteen isolations of Cache Valley virus (Bunyaviridae) were obtained from a total of 113,694 mosquitoes collected in Saskatchewan during the summers of 1972 to 1974. Most of the isolations were from mosquitoes collected during August. Culiseta inornata, the most abundant mosquito (38% of total collected), had the highest minimum vector-infection rate (0.83 isolations per 1000 mosquitoes). The virus was also isolated from Culex tarsalis and Aedes vexans. It is indicated in the isolations that the prairie grasslands of the province are enzootic for Cache Valley virus. 相似文献

Mosquito vectors play a crucial role in the distribution of avian Plasmodium parasites worldwide. At northern latitudes, where climate warming is most pronounced, there are questions about possible changes in the abundance and distribution of Plasmodium parasites, their vectors, and their impacts to avian hosts. To better understand the transmission of Plasmodium among local birds and to gather baseline data on potential vectors, we sampled a total of 3,909 mosquitoes from three locations in south‐central Alaska during the summer of 2016. We screened mosquitoes for the presence of Plasmodium parasites using molecular techniques and estimated Plasmodium infection rates per 1,000 mosquitoes using maximum likelihood methods. We found low estimated infection rates across all mosquitoes (1.28 per 1,000), with significantly higher rates in Culiseta mosquitoes (7.91 per 1,000) than in Aedes mosquitoes (0.57 per 1,000). We detected Plasmodium in a single head/thorax sample of Culiseta, indicating potential for transmission of these parasites by mosquitoes of this genus. Plasmodium parasite DNA isolated from mosquitoes showed a 100% identity match to the BT7 Plasmodium lineage that has been detected in numerous avian species worldwide. Additionally, microscopic analysis of blood smears collected from black‐capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus) at the same locations revealed infection by parasites preliminarily identified as Plasmodium circumflexum. Results from our study provide the first information on Plasmodium infection rates in Alaskan mosquitoes and evidence that Culiseta species may play a role in the transmission and maintenance of Plasmodium parasites in this region. 相似文献

The Mapputta serogroup tentatively contains the mosquito-associated viruses Mapputta, Maprik, Trubanaman and Gan Gan. Interestingly, this serogroup has previously been associated with an acute epidemic polyarthritis-like illness in humans; however, there has been no ensuing genetic characterisation. Here we report the complete genome sequences of Mapputta and Maprik viruses, and a new Mapputta group candidate, Buffalo Creek virus, previously isolated from mosquitoes and detected by serology in a hospitalised patient. Phylogenetic analyses indicate that the group is one of the earliest diverged groups within the genus Orthobunyavirus of the family Bunyaviridae. Analyses show that these three viruses are related to the recently sequenced Australian bunyaviruses from mosquitoes, Salt Ash and Murrumbidgee. A notable feature of the Mapputta group viruses is the absence of the NSs (non-structural) ORF commonly found on the S segment of other orthobunyaviruses. Viruses of the Mapputta group have been isolated from geographically diverse regions ranging from tropical Papua New Guinea to the semi-arid climate of south-eastern Australia. The relevance of this group to human health in the region merits further investigation. 相似文献

Malaria-infected individuals can develop antibodies which reduce the infectiousness of Plasmodium gametocytes to biting Anopheles mosquitoes. When ingested in a bloodmeal together with gametocytes, these antibodies reduce or prevent subsequent parasite maturation in the insect host. This transmission-blocking immunity is usually measured in human sera by testing its effect on the infectivity of gametocytes grown in vitro. Here we evaluate evidence of transmission-blocking immunity in eight studies conducted in three African countries. Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes isolated from each individual were fed to mosquitoes in both autologous plasma collected with the parasites, and permissive serum from non-exposed donors. Evidence of transmission reducing effects of autologous plasma was found in all countries. Experiments involving 116 Gambian children (aged 0.5-15 years) were combined to determine which factors were associated with transmission reducing immune responses. The chances of infecting at least one mosquito and the average proportion of infected mosquitoes were negatively associated with recent exposure to gametocytes and sampling late in the season. These results suggest that effective malaria transmission-reducing antibodies do not commonly circulate in African children, and that recent gametocyte carriage is required to initiate and/or boost such responses. 相似文献

Four cytochrome P450 cDNAs, CYP6AA7, CYP9J40, CYP9J34, and CYP9M10, were isolated from mosquitoes, Culex quinquefasciatus. The P450 gene expression and induction by permethrin were compared for three different mosquito populations bearing different resistance phenotypes, ranging from susceptible (S-Lab), through intermediate (HAmCq(G0), the field parental population) to highly resistant (HAmCq(G8), the 8(th) generation of permethrin selected offspring of HAmCq(G0)). A strong correlation was found for P450 gene expression with the levels of resistance and following permethrin selection at the larval stage of mosquitoes, with the highest expression levels identified in HAmCq(G8), suggesting the importance of CYP6AA7, CYP9J40, CYP9J34, and CYP9M10 in the permethrin resistance of larva mosquitoes. Only CYP6AA7 showed a significant overexpression in HAmCq(G8) adult mosquitoes. Other P450 genes had similar expression levels among the mosquito populations tested, suggesting different P450 genes may be involved in the response to insecticide pressure in different developmental stages. The expression of CYP6AA7, CYP9J34, and CYP9M10 was further induced by permethrin in resistant mosquitoes. Taken together, these results indicate that multiple P450 genes are up-regulated in insecticide resistant mosquitoes through both constitutive overexpression and induction mechanisms, thus increasing the overall expression levels of P450 genes. 相似文献

Amblyospora species and other aquatic Microsporidia were isolated from mosquitoes, black flies, and copepods and the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene was sequenced. Comparative phylogenetic analysis showed a correspondence between the mosquito host genera and their Amblyspora parasite species. There is a clade of Amblyospora species that infect the Culex host group and a clade of Amblyospora that infect the Aedes/Ochlerotatus group of mosquitoes. Parathelohania species, which infect Anopheles mosquitoes, may be the sister group to the Amblyospora in the same way that the Anopheles mosquitoes are thought to be the sister group to the Culex and Aedes mosquitoes. In addition, by sequence analysis of small subunit rDNA from spores, we identified the alternate copepod host for four species of Amblyospora. Amblyospora species are specific for their primary (mosquito) host and each of these mosquito species serves as host for only one Amblyospora species. On the other hand, a single species of copepod can serve as an intermediate host to several Amblyospora species and some Amblyospora species may be found in more than one copepod host. Intrapredatorus barri, a species within a monotypic genus with Amblyospora-like characteristics, falls well within the Amblyospora clade. The genera Edhazardia and Culicospora, which do not have functional meiospores and do not require an intermediate host, but which do have a lanceolate spore type which is ultrastructurally very similar to the Amblyospora spore type found in the copepod, cluster among the Amblyospora species. In the future, the genus Amblyospora may be redefined to include species without obligate intermediate hosts. Hazardia, Berwaldia, Larssonia, Trichotuzetia, and Gurleya are members of a sister group to the Amblyospora clades infecting mosquitoes, and may be representatives of a large group of aquatic parasites. 相似文献

The microsporidian Trachipleistophora hominis was isolated in vitro from the skeletal muscle of an AIDS patient. Since its discovery several more cases of myositis due to Trachipleistophora have been diagnosed but the source of infection is unknown. Morphologically, T. hominis most closely resembles Pleistophora and Vavraia, which undergo polysporous sporogony in sporophorous vesicles, but differs from these genera in the mode of formation of sporoblasts and in the morphology of the sporophorous vesicles. Alignment and analyses of the small subunit ribosomal DNA sequences of T. hominis and several other polysporoblastic genera indicated that its closest phylogenetic relationships were with species of the genera Pleistophora and Vavraia, in line with morphological predictions. The type species of the latter two genera are Pleistophora typicalis and Vavraia culicis; these are parasites of fish and mosquitoes, respectively. These results suggest two possible routes and sources of infection to AIDS patients, these being perorally by ingestion of inadequately cooked fish or crustaceans or percutaneously during a bloodmeal taken by a haematophagous insect. Support for an insect source has been provided by recent detection of a microsporidium from mosquitoes in human corneal tissue. 相似文献
