This study identifies chromosomal inversions in Aedes aegypti using Hi-C, revealing geographic distribution patterns and potential roles in host choice and disease transmission.

This paper develops a marker-assisted mapping strategy to enable forward genetic analysis in Aedes aegypti, identifying a causal gene for a sex-linked mutation and demonstrating its utility for genetic sexing and resistance gene mapping.

This study produces chromosome-level genome assemblies for Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles arabiensis using long-read sequencing and Hi-C scaffolding, improving reference-quality genomes and enabling identification of chromosomal inversion breakpoints.

The paper presents an improved genome assembly of Aedes albopictus, revealing new biological features and enabling population and developmental studies.

The paper presents an improved Aedes aegypti genome assembly, AaegL5, which enhances biological understanding and vector control efforts by resolving key genomic features and identifying new targets for intervention.
