Effective population sizes of a major vector of human diseases, Aedes aegypti

12 microsatellite markers 14,888 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to empirically estimate the effective population size (Ne) in Aedes aegypti, the major vector of yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya, Zika virus. Temporal sampling methods were used to estimate Ne on a global dataset made up of 46 samples of Ae. aegypti that included multiple time points from 17 widely distributed geographic localities. This data has been processed and imported into VectorBase's Population Biology resource.本研究采用12个微卫星标记（microsatellite markers）与14888个单核苷酸多态性（single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs），对作为黄热病、登革热、基孔肯雅热、寨卡病毒主要传播媒介的埃及伊蚊（Aedes aegypti）的有效种群大小（effective population size, Ne）进行实证估算。研究采用时序抽样方法，基于由46份埃及伊蚊样本构成的全球数据集开展有效种群大小估算工作，该数据集涵盖了17个分布广泛的地理区域的多个时间点样本。本数据集已完成处理并导入至VectorBase的种群生物学资源库中。
