Culex quinquefasciatus Life Cycle, Development Stages Lab Experiment, Water Filter Sampling Data and Quantitative PCR Results, 2024-2025
These data consist of quantitative PCR results obtained from a targeted assay designed to detect the presence of Culex quinquefasciatus DNA shed into water. Under controlled laboratory conditions, water samples in three replicate container systems were collected during a laboratory experiment that spanned the larval developmental life stages of Culex quinquefasciatus from egg rafts through adult emergence, with sampling also encompassing the pre-egg raft experimental placement timepoint and beyond post-adult emergence (n=40 samples). The data also include negative control water samples taken alongside experiment samples (n=18) and blank samples taken as controls during the DNA extraction process (n=2).
