Chromosomal Inversions and Their Potential Impact on the Evolution of Arboviral Vector Aedes aegypti
7 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal inversions play a crucial role in evolution and have been found to regulate epidemiologically significant traits in malaria mosquitoes. However, they have not been characterized in Aedes aegypti, the primary vector of arboviruses, due to the poor structure of its polytene chromosomes. The Hi-C proximity ligation approach was used to identify chromosomal inversions in 25 strains of A. aegypti obtained...
