Population genomics of the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus: insights into the recent worldwide invasion
Abstract Aedes albopictus , the “Asian tiger mosquito,” is an aggressive biting mosquito native to Asia that has colonized all continents except Antarctica during the last ~30–40 years. The species is of great public health concern as it can transmit at least 26 arboviruses, including dengue, chikun...
