Journal ArticleDOI

Genome sequence and analysis of the Irish potato famine pathogen Phytophthora infestans.

Brian J. Haas, +102 more
- 17 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: The sequence of the P. infestans genome is reported, which at ∼240 megabases (Mb) is by far the largest and most complex genome sequenced so far in the chromalveolates and probably plays a crucial part in the rapid adaptability of the pathogen to host plants and underpins its evolutionary potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved reference genome of Aedes aegypti informs arbovirus vector control

Benjamin J. Matthews, +87 more
- 14 Nov 2018 - 
TL;DR: An improved, fully re-annotated Aedes aegypti genome assembly (AaegL5) provides insights into the sex-determining M locus, chemosensory systems that help mosquitoes to hunt humans and loci involved in insecticide resistance and will help to generate intervention strategies to fight this deadly disease vector.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulatory Pathways Controlling Female Insect Reproduction.

TL;DR: The role of juvenile hormones, ecdysteroids, and nutritional signaling, along with that of microRNAs, in regulating female insect reproduction at the molecular level are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Juvenile hormone and its receptor, methoprene-tolerant, control the dynamics of mosquito gene expression

TL;DR: This study provides substantial evidence of a central role for insect-specific JH and its receptor Met in the regulation of female mosquito reproductive biology and represents a significant advancement in the understanding of theregulation of gene expression by Jh and its receptors during female mosquito reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

microRNA-309 targets the Homeobox gene SIX4 and controls ovarian development in the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

TL;DR: A spatiotemporal expression profile of miR-309 displayed its blood feeding-dependent onset and ovary-specific manifestation in female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, and this microRNA serves as a regulatory switch permitting a stage-specific degradation of the ovarian SIX4 mRNA, allowing a shift from previteLLogenic to postvitellogenic phases of ovarian development.
