摘要: Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile portions of DNA that able to replicate and spread in the genome many organisms. TEs can be used as a means insert transgenes insects, being stably inherited throughout generations. Anopheles gambiae is main vector human malaria Sub-Saharan Africa. Given extraordinary burden this disease imposes, mosquito became choice target for genetic control approaches with purpose reducing transmission. In study, we investigated abundance distribution Herves TE An. s.s. from Cameroon four islands Gulf Guinea, order determine their structure. We have detected population subdivision between Equatorial Guinea Sao Tome, Principe mainland. This partitioning associates more political rather than geographic boundaries, possibly reflecting different mainland source populations colonizing islands.
