A chromosome-scale assembly of the major African malaria vector Anopheles funestus

2018-12-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Anopheles funestus is one of the three most consequential and widespread vectors of human malaria in tropical Africa. However, the lack of a high-quality reference genome has hindered the association of phenotypic traits with their genetic basis in this important mosquito. <h4>Findings:</h4> Here we present a new high-quality An. funestus reference genome (AfunF3) assembled using 240x coverag...
