Highly evolvable malaria vectors: The genomes of 16 Anopheles mosquitoes

Four species were selected from the An. gambiae sibling species complex followed by
sampling at increasing evolutionary distances within the three main anopheline subgenera
with particular emphasis on the subgenus Cellia. A subset of species was also
selected for SNP-discovery sequencing. The selected species also cover the
spectra of geography - old to new world, and vectorial capacity - from highly efficient to
non-vectors, and most are available from colonies housed by the Malaria Research and
Reference Reagent Resource Center.
