Highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1) clade 2.3.4.4b has spread widely across South America, but its genomic diversity and patterns of introduction into Ecuador remain poorly characterized.
In this study, we report and characterize four genomes of A(H5N1) viruses detected in four individuals of two Ecu...

Bacterial symbionts play crucial roles in mosquito development and other features. Increasing evidence suggests that exposure to insecticides can modulate mosquito-associated microbiota, with potential implications for vector control strategies. The goal of this study was to compare the bacterial communities of Culex q...

Parasitic diseases such as malaria, Chagas disease, leishmaniases, and helminthiases are major causes of sickness and death in low- and middle-income countries. The high genetic diversity of these pathogens affects virulence, immune evasion, and diagnostic accuracy. Although Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) is a powerful...

Black flies (Diptera: Simuliidae) are important vectors of pathogens affecting human and animal health, yet the absence of a chromosome-level nuclear reference genome has constrained molecular and evolutionary studies of the family. Here, we present the first chromosome-level nuclear genome and a developmental transcri...
