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.

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.
