Abstract
Aim. To determine the role of chromosomal polymorphism in the adaptation of malaria mosquito populations to different landscape zones.
Methodology. Cytogenetic analysis of samples of malarial mosquitoes in 10 landscape zones (subzones) of Eastern Europe and Southern Urals was performed. Species composition and frequencies of chromosomal inversions in Anopheles messeae s. l. mosquitoes, including sibling species of An. daciae and An. messeae s. s., were determined from the structure of polytene chromosomes of larvae.
Results. It was established that populations of each landscape zone (subzone) are characterized by a certain composition and frequencies of chromosomal inversions. In the steppe zone, species-specific inversions XL0 and 2R0 of An. daciae predominate; in the taiga zone, inversions XL1 and 2R1 of An. messeae s. s. are common. Populations of the sub-taiga zone are characterized by intermediate frequencies of inversions.
Research implications. It is shown that the landscape zone has its own historically established karyotypic structure of malarial mosquito populations.
Supporting agencies: The study was supported by grant no. 22-24-00183, “Chromosomal polymorphism in populations of sibling species of malaria mosquitoes of the Eurasian taiga”.
