A new genetic study in Science overturns the myth of the “London Underground Mosquito,” revealing that this common urban insect originated not below the cities of modern Europe, but in ancient Mediterranean civilizations more than a thousand years ago. scim.ag/4owIulI

人を刺す”都市型の蚊”の進化起源を大規模ゲノム解析で解き明かした論文が Science に出ました! '都市型の蚊は産業革命以降に近代都市で急速に進化した'という通説を覆し、数千年前の地中海域、特に古代エジプト付近に起源があることを示しました。 プリンストン大での仕事で、筆頭/責任論文です。

The so-called 'London Underground mosquito' linked to West Nile Virus evolved over 1,000 years ago — not 200 years ago in Europe. 🦟 New research reshapes our theories of urban mosquito evolution. 👇 sanger.ac.uk/news_item/orig…

Resumen 🧬: los análisis genómicos muestran que molestus probablemente desarrolló su gusto por la sangre humana y otras adaptaciones hace miles de años, en las primeras sociedades agrícolas del Mediterráneo o de Oriente Medio. 🌾🦟 (10/)

tl;dr: Our genomic analyses show that molestus likely evolved human-biting and other adaptations 1000s of years ago in early agricultural societies of the Mediterranean or Middle East! (10/)

To understand the origin of molestus, we started PipPop: Culex PIPiens POPulation genomics project. Together with 200+ amazing collaborators, we sequenced whole genomes of 800+ mosquitoes across ~50 countries! (7/) x.com/lindymcbr/stat…



Durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, molestus se hizo famoso por picar a los londinenses refugiados en el metro durante los bombardeos nazis, ganándose el apodo de “mosquito del metro de Londres”. Hoy es un símbolo clásico de la adaptación urbana. 🦟🏙️ (4/)

molestus became famous during WWII for feasting on Londoners who sheltered in subway tunnels to avoid Nazi bombing raids and was hence dubbed the London Underground Mosquito. It’s become an oft-cited example with the recent surge of interest in urban adaptation. (4/)

Evolucionando a partir de su alimentación de aves, molestus se ha adaptado por ejemplo en preferir la sangre humana y en su capacidad para reproducirse en espacios subterráneos, como el metro, los sótanos y las fosas sépticas. (3/) @materia_ci

Evolving from the ancestral, bird-biting form, molestus shows myriad adaptations to human-made environments, including its thirst for human blood and the ability to breed in belowground environments, such as subways, cellars, and cesspits. (3/)

Urbanization is rapidly reshaping ecosystems, posing the question of whether and how quickly animals and plants can adapt. Cx. pipiens form molestus is often held up as a benchmark for the potential speed and complexity of urban adaptation. (2/)
