The genomic signal of local environmental adaptation in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Local adaptation is important when predicting arthropod‐borne disease risk because of its impacts on vector population fitness and persistence. However, the extent that vector populations are adapted to the environment generally remains unknown. Despite low population structure and high gene flow in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes across Panama, excepting the province of Bocas del Toro, we identified 128...
