Molecular evolution of the cacophony IVS6 region in sandflies
A number of insects produce acoustic signals during courtship. Genes involved in the control of the courtship song are particularly interesting from an evolutionary viewpoint because interspecific variation in this signal is potentially important as a ...

Hematophagy Generates a Convergent Genomic Signature in Mosquitoes and Sandflies
Blood feeding (hematophagy) is widespread across Diptera (true flies), yet the underlying genetic basis remains poorly understood. Using phylogenomics, we show that four gene families associated with neuromodulation, immune responses, embryonic ...

Epidemiology of Leishmania donovani infection in high-transmission foci in Nepal.
OBJECTIVE: Nepal reports a visceral leishmaniasis (VL) incidence of 5 per 10 000 per year on the basis of notification by health facilities, but little community-based epidemiological information exists.

РОЛЯТА НА КУЧЕТО В ЕПИДЕМИОЛОГИЯТА НА ВИСЦЕРАЛНАТА ЛАЙШМАНИОЗА В ЕНДЕМИЧНИ РАЙОНИ НА БЪЛГАРИЯ
Leishmaniosis is protozoal disease caused by vector-borne parasites from genus Leishmania which transmitted by phlebotomine sandflies. In Bulgaria is reported Mediterranean type of visceral leishmaniosis. Causal pathogen is Leishmania donovani infantum,

Genetic relationships between phlebotomine sandflies (Diptera: psychodidae) from Venezuela
Phlebotomine sandflies are vectors of leishmaniasis in both the New and Old World. Enzyme electrophoresis and cytochrome b mtDNA sequences were used to determine the genetic relationships between 13 species of sandflies from Venezuela.
