Abstract excerpt
We studied spatial and temporal variation in 20-23 Aedes aegypti samples collected in Phnom Penh and its suburbs to estimate the population genetic structure using allozymes and the susceptibility to a dengue-2 virus. Based on seven allozyme systems, we detected low levels of genetic exchanges (i.e. high, significant F(ST) values) between populations collected in the city centre, and different patterns of genetic...
