  abstract = {{T}he {A}sian tiger mosquito {A}edes albopictus became of public health concern as it can replicate and transmit viral and filarial pathogens with a strong invasive success over the world. {V}arious strategies have been proposed to reduce mosquito population's vectorial capacity. {A}mong them, symbiotic control of mosquito borne disease offers promising perspectives. {S}uch method is likely to be affected by the dynamics of mosquito-associated symbiotic communities, which might in turn be affected by host genotype and environment. {O}ur previous study suggested a correlation between mosquitoes' origin, genetic diversity and midgut bacterial diversity. {T}o distinguish the impact of those factors, we have been studying the midgut bacterial microbiota of two {A}e. albopictus populations from tropical ({L}a {R}e {A} union) and temperate ({M}ontpellier) origins under controlled laboratory conditions. the two populations experienced random mating or genetic bottleneck. {M}icrobiota composition did not highlight any variation of the alpha and beta-diversities in bacterial communities related to host's populations. {H}owever, sizes of the mosquitoes were negatively correlated with the bacterial a-diversity of females. {V}ariations in mosquito sex were associated with a shift in the composition of bacterial microbiota. {T}he females' mosquitoes also exhibited changes in the microbiota composition according to their size and after experiencing a reduction of their genetic diversity. {T}hese results provide a framework to investigate the impact of population dynamics on the symbiotic communities associated with the tiger mosquito.},
