Accelerated evolution of constraint elements for hematophagic adaptation in mosquitoes

Accelerated evolution of constraint elements for hematophagic adaptation in mosquitoes

Comparative genomics is a powerful approach that comprehensively interprets the genome. Herein, we performed whole genome comparative analysis of 16 Diptera genomes, including four mosquitoes and 12 Drosophilae. We found more than 540 000 constraint elements (CEs) in the Diptera genome, with the maj...
