Elucidating the life history parameters of Culicoides oxystoma
A comprehensive study was conducted on the life history parameters of an important vector Culicoides oxystoma Kieffer (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae), to standardize potential rearing procedures. Data on life history traits and rearing conditions are crucial for establishing laboratory colony and conducting vector competence-based studies utilizing specimens with a known rearing history. Six different substrate compositions were used to rear the larvae: S1: habitat mud containing cattle manure + nutrient broth + yeast, S2: yeast, S3: habitat mud containing cattle manure + nutrient broth, S4: nutrient broth, S5: sterile (habitat mud consisting cattle manure + nutrient broth + yeast) and S6: tap water. Gravid females preferred ovipositing on beds moistened with tap water compared to distilled water. Egg hatching recorded minimal (3%) in the sterile substrate (S5), hinting at the role of live microbial load. Progression of larval instars got disrupted at 1st instars in S5 and S6. Larval survival and adult emergence were the highest in S1 and the lowest in S4, indicating that S1 is highly effective in the rearing of this species. The life cycle parameters and duration between transitional stages were evaluated at 15 [degrees]C, 20 [degrees]C, 26 [degrees]C, 30 [degrees]C, and 35 [degrees]C using rearing substrate S1. The highest larval survival (>70%) and adult emergence (69%) were achieved at 26 [degrees]C. The duration from egg to adult was 16 to 20 d at 35 [degrees]C, 18 to 24 d at 26 [degrees]C, but up to 36 d at 15 [degrees]C. Elucidating the effective rearing conditionalities of this important vector species will be helpful to study the transmission cycles of pathogens.
