Laboratory mating activities were analyzed in wild and colonized forms of Culex nigripalpus Theobald. Mating experiments utilizing colony females produced insemination levels of about 75% whereas in those experiments involving wild females the insemination rates were less than 2%. Mating success was independent of the type of male used in each cross. Wild genetic material was rapidly incorporated into colony strains via wild males crossed to colony females. This method was used to establish a laboratory marker strain which contains the mutant form, orange fat color.

将库蚊（双翅目：库蚊科）的野生基因型快速整合到实验室适应菌株中1

实验室的交配活动在库蚊的野生和定殖形式中进行了分析。利用群体雌性的交配实验产生了约 75% 的授精水平，而在那些涉及野生雌性的实验中，授精率低于 2%。交配成功与每个杂交中使用的雄性类型无关。通过将野生雄性与群体雌性杂交，野生遗传物质被迅速整合到群体品系中。该方法用于建立实验室标记菌株，该菌株含有突变形式，橙色脂肪颜色。
