Highly resolved genomes as a tool for studying speciation history of two closely related louse lineages with different host specificities
2023-11-05
Abstract excerpt
Sucking lice of the suborder Anoplura are permanent ectoparasites with specific lifestyle and highly derived features. Currently, genomic data are only available for a single species, the human louse Pediculus humanus . In this study we present genomes of two distinct lineages, with different host spectra, of a rodent louse Polyplax serrata . Genomes of these ecologically different lineages are closely similar i...
