Mitochondrial DNA Polymorphism and Heteroplasmy in Populations of<i>Aedes aegypti</i>in Brazil

2008-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The tropical mosquito Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) is the most important domestic vector of urban yellow fever and dengue viruses. Ae. aegypti originated from Africa and was probably introduced into Brazil during the colonial period through embarkations, and dengue epidemics soon followed. Genetic analysis of 12 Ae. aegypti populations from five states in Brazil was conducted based on two mitochondrial DNA f...
