Lima Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas Dengue Aedes aegypti Disease control Genetic evolution Population dynamics We report computational simulations for the evolution of the population of the dengue vector, Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. The results suggest that controlling the mosquito population, on the basis of intraspecific competition at the larval stage, can be an efficient mechanism for controlling the spread of the epidemic. The results also show the presence of a kind of genetic evolution in vector population, which results mainly in increasing the average lifespan of individuals in adulthood. 2012 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46423428017 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.1-2 Vol.42 |
