Abstract

Anopheles cruzii is the main vector of human and simian malaria in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. This biome, which is an important hotspot of malaria transmission, has suffered fragmentation and deforestation as a result of urban expansion. Fragmentation and deforestation occur continually in the south of the city of São Paulo, Brazil, and findings of An. cruzii in the peridomicile have consequently become more frequent in this part of the city. Although An. cruzii is of considerable epidemiological importance, the impact of urbanization on the microevolution of this species in this malaria-endemic region has not been investigated to date. In this study, we investigated temporal variation in wing shape and size in An. cruzii populations collected in sylvatic, peri-urban and urban areas over a three-year period. Our results show a slight but significant phenotypic variation in all three populations over the study period. Time was a more powerful driver for wing variation than geographic distance. Temporal wing-shape variation appears to be positively associated with urbanization, suggesting that anthropogenic changes in the environment may be a strong driver for wing-shape variation in An. cruzii. Further studies using genetic markers are needed to assess genetic differentiation in these populations.

摘要

克氏按蚊是巴西大西洋森林地区人类和猴类疟疾的主要传播媒介。这个生物群落是疟疾传播的一个重要热点地区,由于城市扩张,它遭受了碎片化和森林砍伐。在巴西圣保罗市南部,碎片化和森林砍伐不断发生,因此在该市这一地区,在房屋周围发现克氏按蚊的情况变得更加频繁。尽管克氏按蚊具有相当重要的流行病学意义,但迄今为止,城市化对这个疟疾流行地区该物种微观进化的影响尚未得到研究。在本研究中,我们调查了三年来在森林、城郊和城市地区采集的克氏按蚊种群翅膀形状和大小的时间变化。我们的结果表明,在研究期间,所有三个种群都存在轻微但显著的表型变异。时间比地理距离对翅膀变异的驱动作用更强。翅膀形状的时间变异似乎与城市化呈正相关,这表明环境中的人为变化可能是克氏按蚊翅膀形状变异的一个强大驱动因素。需要使用遗传标记进行进一步研究,以评估这些种群的遗传分化情况。
