Survey for positively selected coding regions in the genome of the hematophagous tsetse fly Glossina morsitans identifies candidate genes associated with feeding habits and embryonic development
Abstract Tsetse flies are responsible for the transmission of Trypanossoma sp. to vertebrate animals in Africa causing huge health issues and economic loss. The availability of the genome sequence of Glossina morsitans enabled the discovery of several genes related to medically important phenotypes...
