| isolation and characterization of the full coding sequence of a novel densovirus from the mosquito culex pipiens pallens. | during an investigation of arboviruses in china, a novel densovirus (dnv) was isolated from the adult female culex pipiens pallens. the virus, designated culex pipiens pallens densovirus (cppdnv), caused cytopathic effect in c6/36 cells. the virus particles were icosahedral, non-enveloped and had a mean diameter of 24 nm. the complete coding region of cppdnv was found to be 3335 nt and it contained three open reading frames (orfs). cppdnv shares 82-93 % identical nucleotides with isolates of the ... | 2008 | 18089743 |
| distribution of mosquitoes and mosquito-borne arboviruses in inner mongolia, china. | during summers in 2007 and 2008, an investigation was conducted to identify the distribution of mosquitoes and circulation of mosquito-borne arboviruses in inner mongolia, china. a total of 10,542 mosquitoes consisting of seven species from the aedes, culex, and anopheles genera were trapped by uv-light traps, and they were sorted into 211 pools according to species, location, and date of collection. the result showed that aedes dorsalis was the most common species, accounting for 41.0% (4327/10 ... | 2011 | 21867416 |
| mosquitoes and mosquito-borne arboviruses in the qinghai-tibet plateau--focused on the qinghai area, china. | an investigation was conducted to identify the distribution of mosquitoes and mosquito-borne arboviruses in the qinghai-tibet plateau, china from july to august in 2007. a total of 8,147 mosquitoes representing six species from three genera (aedes, culex, and anopheles) were collected in three locations (geermu city, altitude of 2,780 m; xining city, 2,200 m; minhe county, 1,700 m). six virus isolates were obtained including tahyna virus (tahv), liaoning virus, and culex pipiens pallens densovir ... | 2010 | 20348523 |
