This study shows that Piwi5 is essential for piRNA production and transposon silencing in Ae. albopictus, with loss of Piwi5 leading to increased transposon activity.

This study shows that Piwi6 in Aedes mosquitoes suppresses LTR retrotransposons in both gonadal and somatic tissues by guiding H3K9me3 histone deposition.
Rebecca Halbach, Ronald P. van Rij
The paper develops a simple piRNA cluster annotation method for non-model insects, validated on mosquito genomes.

The paper identifies a piRNA-lncRNA regulatory network in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes that initiates responder and trailer piRNA formation during embryonic development.
