Spontaneous mutation rate estimates for the principal malaria vectors Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles stephensi
Abstract Using high-depth whole genome sequencing of F0 mating pairs and multiple individual F1 offspring, we estimated the nuclear mutation rate per generation in the malaria vectors Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles stephensi by detecting de novo genetic mutations. A purpose-built computer program...
