Next generation sequencing improves the resolution of detecting mixed host blood meal sources in field collected arboviral mosquito vectors
15 May 2024
Abstract excerpt
Accurate knowledge of blood meal hosts of different mosquito species is critical for identifying potential vectors and establishing the risk of pathogen transmission. We compared the performance of Miseq next generation sequencing approach relative to conventional Sanger sequencing approach in identification of mosquito blood meals using genetic markers targeting the 12S rRNA and cytochrome oxidase I (COI) genes....
