Thirteen strains among 3 species of entomopathogenic bacteria were tested against 3 medically important mosquito species in French Polynesia. Two strains of Bacillus thuringiensis were highly toxic to Aedes polynesiensis, Aedes aegypti, and Culex quinquefasciatus. Six of 7 strains of Bacillus sphaericus tested were highly toxic to Cx. quinquefasciatus but not to the Aedes spp. Clostridium bifermentans serovar. malaysia was more toxic to Ae. polynesiensis than to the other 2 species. Entomopathogenic bacteria merit field testing for larval mosquito control in French Polynesia.
在法属波利尼西亚,对3种昆虫病原细菌中的13个菌株进行了针对3种具有医学重要性的蚊虫的测试。两株苏云金芽孢杆菌对波利尼西亚伊蚊、埃及伊蚊和致倦库蚊具有高毒性。所测试的7株球形芽孢杆菌中有6株对致倦库蚊具有高毒性,但对伊蚊属蚊虫无毒性。双发酵梭菌马来西亚血清型对波利尼西亚伊蚊的毒性比对其他两种蚊虫的毒性更强。昆虫病原细菌值得在法属波利尼西亚进行用于控制蚊虫幼虫的现场测试。
