Abstract

We have reviewed recent progress and the remaining challenges in vector-omics. We have highlighted several technologies and applications that facilitate novel biological insights beyond achieving a reference-quality genome assembly. Among other topics, we have discussed the applications of chromatin conformation capture, chromatin accessibility assays, optical mapping, full-length RNA sequencing, single cell RNA analysis, proteomics, and population genomics. We anticipate that we will witness a great expansion in vector-omics research not only in its application in a broad range of species, but also its ability to uncover novel genetic elements and tackle previously inaccessible regions of the genome. It is our hope that the continued innovation in device portability, cost reduction, and informatics support will in the foreseeable future bring vector-omics to every vector laboratory and field station in the world, which will have an unparalleled impact on basic research and the control of vector-borne infectious diseases.
