| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We assessed the spatial population genetic structure of dengue vector mosquito Aedes aegypti in Metro Manila and Tarlac city in the Philippines. The analysis inferred a strong dispersal activity of Ae aegypti based on the observed low genetic differentiation among populations. However, fine scale population structuring was also detected based on the generated dendrogram and the identification of 3 genetic populations. Based on auto-correlation among local populations, their flight distance was estimated < 5km. In addition, we also developed a GIS-based prediction model of local dengue risk focusing on flood intensity and land use classification in all 604 administrative district in Metro Manila. Using these data, we constructed a regression tree model that describes the spatial variation of dengue infection rate of the administrative section. The model was estimated with high accuracy, and flooding has also been shown that a high contribution as a risk factor.
