Compared to these other mosquitoes, Culex quinquefasciatus possesses many specific hallmark characteristics, and may thus provide different angles for research which ultimately leads to a practical solution for controlling the ever increasing burden of insect-vector-borne diseases around the globe. We argue the special importance of the cosmopolitan species-Culex genome sequence by invoking many interesting questions and the possible of potential of the Culex genome to answer those. specialized 052 020 5 63 2012 1756-3305 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/PAR00008833 10.1186/1756-3305-5-63 1756-3305 [F B010055841] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/PAR00008833 https://horizon.documentation.ird.fr/exl-doc/pleins_textes/divers17-09/010055841.pdf IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2012-06-01 2018-12-07 PAR00008833 fre
