• Spread of The Tiger: Global Risk of Invasion by The Mosquito Aedes albopictus (2007, unknown): “Genetic analyses have corroborated that Ae. albopictus that colonized the United States were from temperate Japan, but colonizing populations of the same species in Brazil were of tropical origin (Birungi and Munstermann 2002).”
• Asymmetric Evolution of Photoperiodic Diapause in Temperate and Tropical Invasive Populations of Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) (2003, background): “Although low mtDNA diversity suggested small founder populations, nuclear genetic diversity was conserved by rapid dispersal and new establishments, which allowed for local differentiation, as conÞrmed by isoenzyme analyses shortly after USA invasions (Black et al. 1988).”
• Aedes albopictus, an arbovirus vector: from the darkness to the light. (2009, background): “More recently, the common origin of the North and South American populations was questioned using mitochondrial markers [19].”
