Density‐dependent population dynamics in Aedes aegypti slow the spread of wMel Wolbachia

Field release of endosymbiotic Wolbachia bacteria into wild Aedes aegypti mosquito populations is a promising strategy for biocontrol of dengue. This strategy requires successful Wolbachia invasion through the mosquito vector population. Natural variation in mosquito fitness due to density‐dependent...
