The Genomic Architecture of Novel Simulium damnosum Wolbachia Prophage Sequence Elements and Implications for Onchocerciasis Epidemiology

We are grateful for the support provided in Ghana by Daniel A. Boakye, Mike Y. Osei-Atweneboana, and Anthony Tetteh-Kumah for the collection of the simuliid larval samples. We are also grateful to the Natural History Museum's DNA sequencing facility, and especially to Julia Llewellyn-Hughes and...
