Chromosome-level genome assemblies of the malaria vectors Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles arabiensis
1 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles arabiensis belong to the Anopheles gambiae complex and are among the major malaria vectors in sub-Saharan Africa. However, chromosome-level reference genome assemblies are still lacking for these medically important mosquito species. FINDINGS: In this study, we produced de novo chromosome-level genome assemblies for A. coluzzii and A. arabiensis using the long-read...
