Novel molecular evidence of population structure in Anopheles (Kerteszia) bellator from Brazilian Atlantic Forest

Anopheles bellator is a primary malaria vector in the Atlantic Forest. Partial sequences of timeless and Clock genes were used to assess the genetic differentiation of five Brazilian populations, which showed strong population structure (e.g. high F ST values and fixed differences) in all pairwise...
