Predicting Wolbachia invasion dynamics in Aedes aegypti populations using models of density-dependent demographic traits

8 Nov 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Arbovirus transmission by the mosquito Aedes aegypti can be reduced by the introduction and establishment of the endosymbiotic bacteria Wolbachia in wild populations of the vector. Wolbachia spreads by increasing the fitness of its hosts relative to uninfected mosquitoes. However, mosquito fitness is also strongly affected by population size through density-dependent competition for limited food...
