Genome of tropical bed bug <i>Cimex hemipterus</i> (Cimicidae, Hemiptera) reveals tetraspanin expanded in bed bug ancestor

2024-04-28

Abstract excerpt

Cimex species are ectoparasites that exclusively feed on warm-blooded animals such as birds and mammals. Three cimicid species are known to be persistent pests for humans, including the tropical bed bug C. hemipterus , common bed bug C. lectularius , and Eastern bat bug Leptocimex boueti . To date, genomic information is restricted to the common bed bug C. lectularius , which limits understand their biology an...
