Population genomics of two invasive mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus) from the Indo-Pacific

Abstract: The arbovirus vectors Aedes aegypti (yellow fever mosquito) and Ae. albopictus (Asian tiger mosquito) are both common throughout the Indo-Pacific region, where 70% of global dengue transmission occurs. For Ae. aegypti all Indo-Pacific populations are invasive, having spread from an initial native range of Africa, while for Ae. albopictus the Indo-Pacific includes invasive populations and those from the native range: putatively, India to Japan to Southeast Asia. This study analyses the population genomics of 48… Show more

“…UMAP has also been successfully used with ancient DNA samples combined with modern and contemporary populations to identify shared population structure [15], as well as animal populations to study spatial introgression in mussels [16], genetic bottlenecks in the white rhino population [17], and the geographic origin of disease-carrying mosquitoes [18,19].…”

“…The recent introduction of population genomics to invasion biology has helped shed light on dispersal and adaptation in invasive systems, while also providing input into the management of invasive species. Genome-wide molecular markers have demonstrated high power for tracing invasive material (Gloria-Soria et al, 2018;Schmidt, Chung, van Rooyen, et al, 2020;Wu et al, 2020) and for investigating gene flow and genetic structure among even weakly-differentiated invasive populations (Cristescu, 2015;Elfekih et al, 2018;Schmidt, Chung, Honnen, Weeks, & Hoffmann, 2020;Sherpa, Blum, Capblancq, et al, 2019). Additional questions can be asked with invasion genomic datasets when high-quality reference assemblies are available (McCartney, Mallez, & Gohl, 2019).…”

“…An Australian invasion of this species could cover most of Australia's east coast (Hill, Axford, & Hoffmann, 2014;Russell, Williams, Sutherst, & Ritchie, 2005). The rapid spread of this species and its capacity for long-distance invasion make studies of its dispersal globally relevant (Goubert et al, 2017;Kraemer et al, 2019;Schmidt, Chung, Honnen, et al, 2020;.…”
