Expansions and contractions in gene families of independently-evolved blood-feeding insects.

Published in: BMC evolutionary biology (2020)

Our results reveal a new set of candidate genes to be explored in further analysis to help the development of new strategies to deal with blood-feeding vectors and also presents a new perspective to study the evolution of hematophagy identifying convergent molecular patterns.
