| [seasonal dynamics of oviposition in non-autogenous population of culex pipiens pipiens (diptera: culicidae) in the leningrad province]. | seasonal patterns of oviposition in a synanthropic unautogenous population of culex pipiens pipiens mosquitoes from 69 suburban settlements (60 degrees 30' n, 30 degrees e') of the leningrad province were studied during the period 1998-2002 years. the numbers of egg rafts laid in six artificial pools (barrels) were counted every day; altogether 692 rafts were collected. the general patterns of oviposition activity were similar for all studied years, in spite of their differences in the summer te ... | 2003 | 14658306 |
| [molecular genetic methods for the identification of the urban mosquito culex pipiens pipiens f. molestus (diptera, culicidae)]. | molecular genetic methods for the identification of two ecotypes, or forms (pipiens and molestus) of the culex pipiens pipiens mosquitoes, which are known as active bloodsuckers and vectors of various agents of diseases, are proposed. for the dna analysis, two populations of the urban mosquitoes (the molestus ecotype) from st. petersburg and moscow and two populations from the overground reservoirs in the leningrad province and neighboring areas of moscow (the pipiens ecotype) have been studied. ... | 2004 | 15553770 |
