Background: Leishmaniasis is caused by the protozoan Leishmania spp. In some loci from Iran, some isolates have ITS1 like the one in Crithidia spp. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed molecular characters of the mentioned isolates.

Many pollinators, including bumble bees, are in decline. Such declines are known to be driven by a number of interacting factors. Decreases in bee populations may also negatively impact the key ecosystem service, pollination, that they provide ...

Temporal analysis of the honey bee microbiome reveals four novel viruses and seasonal prevalence of known viruses, Nosema, and Crithidia. [PDF]
Honey bees (Apis mellifera) play a critical role in global food production as pollinators of numerous crops. Recently, honey bee populations in the United States, Canada, and Europe have suffered an unexplained increase in annual losses due to a ...

Genomic Variation among Strains of
In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the genomes of 40 strains, in addition to the already-reported two type strains, of two Crithidia species infecting bumblebees in Alaska and Central Europe and demonstrated that different strains of Crithidia ...

Ecological Factors Shaping Nosema and Crithidia Prevalence in Coastal Sage Scrub Bee and Ant Communities [PDF]
Pathogens are one of the major factors attributed to bee species declines. Flowers can serve as hubs for bee pathogens and shared floral resources mediate the acquisition of pathogens from infected to healthy hosts.

A draft genome of the honey bee trypanosomatid parasite Crithidia mellificae. [PDF]
Since 2006, honey bee colonies in North America and Europe have experienced increased annual mortality. These losses correlate with increased pathogen incidence and abundance, though no single etiologic agent has been identified.

Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐
