Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The Aedes aegypti mosquito is widespread in tropical and subtropical regions. There are two recognized subspecies; the invasive Aedes aegypti aegypti (Aaa) and the ancestral Aedes aegypti formosus (Aaf). Aaf is common throughout Kenya whereas Aaa, which was historically confined to coastal regions, has undergone a range expansion. In areas of sympatry, gene flow may lead to admixed populations with...
