Hidden genomic features of an invasive malaria vector, <i>Anopheles stephensi</i>

2020-05-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The mosquito Anopheles stephensi is a vector of urban malaria in Asia that recently invaded Africa. Studying the genetic basis of vectorial capacity and engineering genetic interventions are both impeded by limitations of a vector’s genome assembly. The existing assemblies of An. stephensi are draft-quality and contain thousands of sequence gaps, potentially missing genetic elements importan...
