Rapid evolution of female-biased genes among four species of <i>Anopheles</i> malaria mosquitoes

2016-10-17

Abstract excerpt

Understanding how phenotypic differences between males and females arise from the sex-biased expression of nearly identical genomes can often reveal important insights into the biology and evolution of a species. Among Anopheles mosquito species, these phenotypic differences include vectorial capacity, as it is only females that blood feed and thus transmit human malaria. Here, we use RNA-seq data from multiple t...
