Dear all,
The genome paper for the louse Pediculus humanus is available,
This insect has the smallest number of genes yet for an arthropod.
It has however a "complete" gene set; its extras have been lost.
Find at
http://www.pnas.org/cgi/doi/10.1073/pnas.1003379107
Genome sequences of the human body louse and its
primary endosymbiont provide insights into the
permanent parasitic lifestyle.
