ABSTRACT

Se estudiaron las tablas de vida en condiciones de laboratorio de 3 cepas de Culex quinquefasciatus: Slab, susceptible de referencia; Habana Vieja, presionada con cipermetrina hasta su cuarta generación; y Cotorro, procedente del terreno. Se encontró que los diferentes niveles de resistencia a insecticidas organofosforados y piretroides presentes en las cepas Cotorro y Habana Vieja no influyeron en la duración del período de desarrollo de los estadios inmaduros ni en la proporción sexual de los adultos emergidos, y ejercieron un efecto favorable y directamente proporcional sobre la supervivencia y longevidad de los adultos. Sin embargo, influyó de manera negativa e inversamente proporcional sobre la reproducción y el crecimiento poblacional de estas cepas. Se proporcionan datos de utilidad para el uso y manejo de insecticidas dentro de las estrategias de control de Culex quinquefasciatus, importante vector de la filariasis linfática.


The life tables of 3 strains of Culex quinquefasciatus were studied under laboratory conditions: Slab, susceptible to reference; Old Havana, treated with cypermethrin until its fourth generation; and Cotorro, from the field. It was found that the different levels of resistance to organophosphate insecticides and pyrethroids present in the Cotorro and Old Havana strains did not influence either on the duration of the period of development of the inmature stages or in the sexual proportion of the emerged adults, but they had a favorable and directly porportional effect on the survival and longevity of the adults. However, they exerted a negative and inversely proportional influence on the reproduction and population growth of these strains. Useful data for the use and management of insecticides within the strategics of control of Culex quinquefasciatus, an important vector of lymphatic filariasis, are provided.

ABSTRACT

Se seleccionó una cepa de campo de Culex quinquefasciatus resistente al insecticida piretroide lambdacialotrina, con el objetivo de poder utilizarla como cepa de referencia en el laboratorio, en los estudios de bioquímica y genética de la resistencia; evaluar la utilidad de este insectivida para el control de mosquitos en Cuba y determinar la resistencia cruzada a insectividas organofosforados, piretroides y un carbamato. Se obtuvo una alta resistencia a lambdacialotrina después de 6 generaciones de presión de selección. Se observó baja o ninguna resistencia cruzada a otros piretroides (deltametrina y cipermetrina), a un carbamato (propoxur) y a los insecticidas organofosforados (clorpirifos y metil-pirimifos); sin embargo, se observó una alta resistencia cruzada a malatión (organofosforado).


A field strain of Culex quinquefasciatus resistant to pyrethroid lambda-cyhalothrin insecticide was selected to be used as a reference strain in the laboratory for conducting studies of biochemistry and genetics of resistance, to evaluate the utility of this insecticide for the control of mosquitoes in Cuba, and to determine the cross resistance to organophosphate insecticides, pyrethroids and a carbamate. A hig resistance to lambdacyhalothrin was obtained after 6 generations of selective pressure. Lowe or no cross resistance to other pyrethroids (deltamethrin and cyper-methrin), to a carbamate (propoxur) and to the organophosphate insecticides (clorpirifos and methyl-pyrimifos) was observed. A high cross resistance to malathion (organophosphate) was detected.
