Genome assembly and geospatial phylogenomics of the bed bug Cimex lectularius

Genome assembly and geospatial phylogenomics of the bed bug Cimex lectularius

The common bedbug is a pest for humans, yet its molecular biology is poorly understood. Here, the authors sequence the common bedbug genome and profile gene expression across all life stages to show major changes in gene expression after feeding on human blood.
