Happy our latest work is out! 🧬🦟
1️⃣ We present chromosome-level reference genomes for four Culex species present in the Mediterranean Basin
🦟Cx. laticinctus
🦟Cx. modestus
🦟Cx. perexiguus
🦟Cx. theileri
They were generated as part of @ergabiodiv.bsky.social initiative's @biogeneurope.bsky.social
Sonia Cebrián-Camisón
Ruiz-López et al. assemble reference sequences for four Culex species, offering crucial resources for exploring the genetic basis of vector competence for different pathogens, and help implement mosquito control efforts and disease prevention.
