Abstract
Chromosomal variability in peripheral populations of malaria mosquitoes of the Anopheles genus (Diptera, Culicidae) inhabiting the territory of Karelia has been studied. The modern northern limits of the ranges inhabited by sibling species of malarial mosquitoes An. beklemishevi, An. daciae, An. messeae s. s. and An. maculipennis were established. After 2010, the boundary of distribution of malaria mosquitoes shifted northward by 170 km, from the 65th parallel to the Arctic Circle. Inversion heterozygotes XL1, XL2, 2R2, 3R1, and 3R5 were found in peripheral populations of An. beklemishevi. Peripheral populations of An. messeae s. s. were homozygous for inversion of sex chromosome XL1 and differed in the frequencies of autosome inversions from the middle taiga populations. The frequency of heterozygotes for autosomal inversions 2R1, 3R1, and 3L1 increased in populations at the edge of the species range. Chromosomal variability in peripheral populations contributes to the dispersal of malaria mosquitoes in high latitudes under warming climate conditions.
期刊介绍:
Russian Journal of Genetics is a journal intended to make significant contribution to the development of genetics. The journal publishes reviews and experimental papers in the areas of theoretical and applied genetics. It presents fundamental research on genetic processes at molecular, cell, organism, and population levels, including problems of the conservation and rational management of genetic resources and the functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and medical genetics.
