An integrated mosquito small RNA genomics resource reveals dynamic evolution and host responses to viruses and transposons
2020-04-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Although mosquitoes are major transmission vectors for pathogenic arboviruses, viral infection has little impact on mosquito health. This immunity is due in part to mosquito RNA interference (RNAi) pathways that generate antiviral small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs). RNAi also maintains genome integrity by potently repressing mosquito transposon activity in the ger...
