Genome-wide association of trypanosome infection status in the tsetse fly Glossina fuscipes, the major vector of African trypanosomiasis in Uganda
2022-09-27
Abstract excerpt
The primary vector of the trypanosome parasite causing human and animal African trypanosomiasis in Uganda is the riverine tsetse fly Glossina fuscipes fuscipes ( Gff ). We conducted a genome-wide association (GWA) analysis with field-caught Gff . To increase statistical power, we first improved the Gff genome assembly with whole genome 10X Chromium sequencing, used ddRAD-seq to identify autosomal versus sex-chromo...
