The First Chromosome-Scale Genome Assembly for Dermacentor reticulatus: A Key Vector of Tick-Borne Pathogens of Public and Veterinary Health Importance in Europe

The paper presents the first chromosome-scale genome assembly for Dermacentor reticulatus, revealing a repeat-rich genome and providing insights into its phylogenetic placement and functional genomics.

Uncovering the genetic diversity in Aedes aegypti insecticide resistance genes through global comparative genomics

The paper analyzes genetic diversity in four insecticide resistance genes of Aedes aegypti across global populations to identify mutations and copy number variations associated with insecticide resistance.

Towards environmental detection, quantification, and molecular characterization of Anopheles stephensi and Aedes aegypti from larval breeding sites

This study validates the use of environmental DNA (eDNA) for detecting and characterizing Anopheles stephensi and Aedes aegypti mosquitoes from larval breeding sites using multiplex TaqMan assays and amplicon-sequencing panels.

Investigating the relationship between insecticide resistance, underlying molecular mechanisms and malaria prevalence in Anopheles gambiae s.l. from Guinea
