The Insecticidal Activity of Entomopathogenic Bacteria Isolated from Musca domestica, Chrysomya albiceps and Lucilia sericata against the Mosquito Larvae of Culex pipiens

Abstract: The present study evaluated the toxicity of different bacterial strains isolated from the outer surface of adult flies associated with carrions at Al -Mansoureya, Giza Governorate, Egypt against Culex pipiens larvae. 11 different bacterial strains were isolated and identified from the adults of Musca domestica, Chrysomya albiceps and Lucilia sericata. Only five strains caused mortality in C. pipiens larvae more than 50 %. The highest larval mortality was caused by the bacterial strains; Klebsiella oxytoca and … Show more

“…Early investigations of microbial communities relied heavily on traditional cultural practices and were typically focused on infective strains [40,41]. Numerous in-depth assessments employing culture-independent methods have been established in recent years to examine bacterial populations in many insects [42,43,44]. Flies are especially interesting because many of them reproduce in decomposing organic debris, which is colonized by a variety of microbes.…”

“…The obtained results are in perfect harmony with the results obtained by Mohammed et al, [45] who conducted an ecological study on zoonotic bacteria distributed by flies in cow farms and discovered that the most common bacterial isolates concluded were Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Enterobacter, Staphylococci, Klebsiella sp., Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., and Proteus spp. Also, Fouda et al, [44] isolated and identified 11 bacterial strains from the adults of Musca domestica, Chrysomya albiceps and Lucilia sericata associated with different carions. The incidence of E. coli and other Enterobacterales in this study is a cause for public health concern as this bacterium has been implicated in cases of gastroenteritis.…”

“…This bacterial species is an ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen of humans and animals that is often found in soil, groundwater, animals, and plants [102]. However, closely related species such as K. pneumoniae and K. oxytoca kill Trichoplusia ni and Culex pipiens, respectively [94,103].…”
