  abstract = {{T}he {A}sian tiger mosquito {A}edes albopictus is one of the most significant pathogen vectors of the twenty-first century. {O}riginating from {A}sia, it has invaded a wide range of eco-climatic regions worldwide. {T}he insect-associated microbiota is now recognized to play a significant role in host biology. {W}hile genetic diversity bottlenecks are known to result from biological invasions, the resulting shifts in host associated microbiota diversity has not been thoroughly investigated. {T}o address this subject, we compared four autochthonous {A}e. albopictus populations in {V}ietnam, the native area of {A}e. albopictus, and three populations recently introduced to {M}etropolitan {F}rance, with the aim of documenting whether these populations display differences in host genotype and bacterial microbiota. {P}opulation-level genetic diversity (microsatellite markers and {COI} haplotype) and bacterial diversity (16{S} r{DNA} metabarcoding) were compared between field-caught mosquitoes. {B}acterial microbiota from the whole insect bodies were largely dominated by {W}olbachia pipientis. {T}argeted analysis of the gut microbiota revealed a greater bacterial diversity in which a fraction was common between {F}rench and {V}ietnamese populations. {T}he genus {D}ysgonomonas was the most prevalent and abundant across all studied populations. {O}verall genetic diversities of both hosts and bacterial microbiota were significantly reduced in recently established populations of {F}rance compared to the autochthonous populations of {V}ietnam. {T}hese results open up many important avenues of investigation in order to link the process of geographical invasion to shifts in commensal and symbiotic microbiome communities, as such shifts may have dramatic impacts on the biology and/or vector competence of invading hematophagous insects.},
