A linkage-based genome assembly for the mosquito aedes albopictus and identification of chromosomal regions affecting diapause

The Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is an invasive vector mosquito of substantial public health concern. The large genome size (similar to 1.19-1.28 Gb by cytofluorometric estimates), comprised of similar to 68% repetitive DNA sequences, has made it difficult to produce a high-quality genome...
