Uncovering transposable element variants and their potential adaptive impact in urban populations of the malaria vector <i>Anopheles coluzzii</i>

2020-11-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4> A bstract </h4> <h4>Background</h4> Anopheles coluzzii is one of the primary vectors of human malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. Recently, it has colonized the main cities of Central Africa threatening vector control programs. The adaptation of An. coluzzii to urban environments is partly due to an increased tolerance to organic pollution and insecticides. While some of the molecular mechanisms for ecologica...
