Fine-scale landscape genomics helps explain the slow spread of <i>Wolbachia</i> through the <i>Aedes aegypti</i> population in Cairns, Australia

2017-01-27

Abstract excerpt

The endosymbiotic bacterium Wolbachia suppresses the capacity for arboviral transmission in the mosquito Aedes aegypti , and can spread through wild mosquito populations following local introductions. Recent introductions in Cairns, Australia have demonstrated slower than expected spread, that could be due to: i) barriers to Ae. aegypti dispersal; ii) leptokurtically distributed dispersal distances; and iii) in...
