Nuclear and mitochondrial population genetics of the australasian arbovirus vector culex annulirostris (skuse) reveals strong geographic structure and cryptic species

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The authors aim to further investigate the distinct mtDNA lineages of Cx. annulirostris, using nuclear microsatellite markers to assess whether they show evidence of population structure at the nuclear level, and if they constitute distinct species. If there is evidence of cryptic species, the authors aim to also develop a PCR molecular diagnostic to distinguish them. The authors developed 12 microsatellite markers for Cx. annulirostris, of which 10 showed sufficient variation to be of utility for population genetics analysis.
• Who: William Atherton from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the Article: Nuclear and mitochondrial population genetics . . .
