COI DNA barcoding to differentiate Haemagogus janthinomys and Haemagogus capricornii (Diptera: Culicidae) mosquitoes
6 Sept 2024
Abstract excerpt
• For the first time, mtCOI sequences from Hg. capricornii were obtained. • COI sequences proved effective in the molecular identification of Haemagogus spp. • Hg. capricornii was only present in plateau areas of the state. • Hg. janthinomys was found most widespread in the state. The genus Haemagogus (Diptera: Culicidae) includes species that are important vectors of pathogens such as the yellow fever virus. The...
