DataSheet_1_The lipidome of Crithidia fasiculataand its plasticity.docx [PDF]
Crithidia fasiculata belongs to the trypanosomatidae order of protozoan parasites, bearing close relation to other kinetoplastid parasites such as Trypanosoma brucei and Leishmania spp.

Pollen from multiple sunflower cultivars and species reduces a common bumblebee gut pathogen [PDF]
Pathogens are one of the factors driving pollinator declines. Diet can play an important role in mediating pollinator health and resistance to pathogens. Sunflower pollen (Helianthus annuus) dramatically reduced a gut pathogen (Crithidia bombi) of Bombus

Trypanothione Synthesis in Crithidia Revisited [PDF]
In Crithidia fasciculata the biosynthesis of trypanothione (N(1),N(8)-bis(glutathionyl)spermidine; reduced trypanothione), a redox mediator unique to and essential for pathogenic trypanosomatids, was assumed to be achieved by two distinct enzymes, glutathionylspermidine synthetase and trypanothione synthetase (TryS), and only the first one was ...

How Population Structure and Nest Membership Shape Pathogen Patterns in Bumble Bees. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Host density, genetic diversity and social groups are key factors influencing pathogen transmission in wildlife populations, but their interactions remain poorly understood in insects. Islands can provide natural laboratories with distinct populations that vary in density and genetic diversity, whereby dense, genetically homogeneous ...

No evidence of effects or interaction between the widely used herbicide, glyphosate, and a common parasite in bumble bees [PDF]
Background Glyphosate is the world’s most used pesticide and it is used without the mitigation measures that could reduce the exposure of pollinators to it. However, studies are starting to suggest negative impacts of this pesticide on bees, an essential

Molecular Identification of Species Caused Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in South-ern Zone of Iran
Background: Leishmania major and Leishmania tropica are two main species causing cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in Iran. Recently, Crithidia spp. has also been reported in the wound of patients with CL.

Crithidia mellificae infection in different mammalian species in Brazil
Crithidia mellificae, a monoxenous trypanosomatid considered restricted to insects, was recently reported to infect a bat. Herein, C. mellificae has been demonstrated to have a wider range of vertebrate hosts and distribution in Brazilian biomes than ...

Large circular mitochondrial DNA in Crithidia luciliae [PDF]
A novel circular DNA, 11.3 μm in contour length, has been found in a pure kinetoplast DNA fraction of Crithidia luciliae. The mitochondrial nature of the kinetoplast and the absence of these large circular molecules in the nuclear fraction of DNA suggest

Differential diagnosis of the honey bee trypanosomatids Crithidia mellificae and Lotmaria passim [PDF]
Trypanosomatids infecting honey bees have been poorly studied with molecular methods until recently. After the description of Crithidia mellificae (Langridge and McGhee, 1967) it took about forty years until molecular data for honey bee trypanosomatids ...
