Marker-assisted mapping enables effective forward genetic analysis in the arboviral vector Aedes aegypti, a species with vast recombination deserts

Chujia Chen, Austin Compton, Katerina Nikolouli, Aihua Wang, Azadeh Aryan, Atashi Sharma, Yumin Qi, Camden Dellinger, Melanie Hempel, Mark Potters, Antonios A. Augustinos, David W. Severson, Kostas Bourtzis, Zhijian Jake Tu

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.

The beginning of the end: a chromosomal assembly of the New World malaria mosquito ends with a novel telomere

Austin Compton, Jiangtao Liang, Chujia Chen, Varvara Lukyanchikova, Yumin Qi, Mark Potters, Robert E. Settlage, Dustin Miller, Stéphane Deschamps, Chunhong Mao, Víctor Llaca, Igor V. Sharakhov, Zhijian Tu

This paper presents a telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of Anopheles albimanus using advanced sequencing technologies, revealing novel telomeric repeats and previously uncharacterized genomic regions.

Nix confers heritable sex-conversion in Aedes aegypti and myo-sex is needed for male flight

Azadeh Aryan, Michelle A. E. Anderson, James Kite Biedler, Yumin Qi, Justin M. Overcash, Anastasia N. Naumenko, Maria V. Sharakhova, Chunhong Mao, Zach N. Adelman, Zhijian Jake Tu

This study shows that the Nix gene can convert female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes into fertile males, which can then produce sex-converted offspring, but require mating with wild-type females to fly, and myo-sex is essential for male flight.
