Glossina austeni (Tsetse fly, TTRI) (GausT1)

Glossina austeni (Tsetse fly, TTRI) Assembly and Gene Annotation

The Glossina austeni data and its display on Ensembl Genomes are made possible through a joint effort by the Ensembl Genomes group and VectorBase, a component of VEuPathDB.

The assembly name may not match that from INSDC due to additional community contributions applied by VEuPathDB to the initial INSDC assembly (recorded by the assembly accession).
