Multiple introductions and overwintering shape the progressive invasion of <em>Aedes albopictus</em> beyond the Alps (Publications)
At a global level, we detected four genetic clusters with specimens from Indonesia, Brazil, and Japan as the most differentiated, whereas specimens from Europe, Hong Kong, and USA largely overlapped.
