“…For example, VectorBase genomes have been used to resolve questions involving individual genes [ 25 – 27 ], characterize gene families [ 28 , 29 ], and perform genome-wide analyses [ 30 , 31 ]. Genome resources have also been used to develop wet lab techniques, for example, for primer design [ 32 ] or a multilocus amplicon sequencing for simultaneous mosquito species identification and detection of parasite infection status [ 33 ]. BLAST [ 34 , 35 ], gene enrichment [ 36 ], and comparative genomic analyses among the same or different species, have been used for phylogenetic and homolog gene predictions [ 37 •, 38 •, 39 •].…”
