Rapid evolution and the genomic consequences of selection against interspecific mating

Abstract: While few species introduced into a new environment become invasive, those that do provide critical information on ecological mechanisms that determine invasions success and the evolutionary responses that follow invasion. Aedes albopictus (the Asian tiger mosquito) was introduced into the naturalized range of Aedes aegypti (the yellow fever mosquito) in the United States in the mid-1980s, resulting in the displacement of A. aegypti in much of the south-eastern United States. The rapid displacement was likely … Show more

“…Thus, we compiled outlier loci detected using both methods into a single database for downstream investigation. The number of loci we detected using this approach (see section 3.2 below and Table 1) is consistent with other studies (e.g., Burford Reiskind et al., 2018; Tigano et al., 2017).…”

“…In any case, a signature of selection in the Ae. aegypti genome to a specific type of interspecific interaction (mating) was found by Burford Reiskind et al [13] allowing the identification of its genetic basis.…”

“…The female mating behaviours we measured did not differ between evolved populations suggesting that the mating regimes did not select on female mating responses. Recent work in Aedes mosquitoes has demonstrated evolution of interspecific female choice over a similar number of generations [56,57]. Although our focus in this study was on pre-copulatory interactions, a number of post-copulatory changes in female mating behaviours [57, 58] have been described in this species and these may have a larger role in sexual conflict.…”

Future work could take advantage of an experimental evolution approach similar to our own to investigate the role of sexual selection in the evolution of female mosquito post-copulatory behaviour, as has been done in Drosophila.…”
