Zaprionus kolodkinae flies carry a maternally inherited ixodetis clade Spiroplasma that protects its host against wasp attack but has low overall physiological impact. Genome analysis presented a set of known symbiosis‐relevant effectors, and one encoding—a ricin B domain protein—that is novel to this Spiroplasma genome.

Protein tyrosine phosphatase TbPTP1:A molecular switch controlling life cycle differentiation in trypanosomes [PDF]
Differentiation in African trypanosomes (Trypanosoma brucei) entails passage between a mammalian host, where parasites exist as a proliferative slender form or a G0-arrested stumpy form, and the tsetse fly.

A novel selection regime for differentiation defects demonstrates an essential role for the stumpy form in the life cycle of the African trypanosome [PDF]
A novel selection scheme has been developed to isolate bloodstream forms of Trypanosoma brucei, which are defective in their ability to differentiate to the procyclic stage.

The highlands of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are home to critically endangered eastern gorillas (Gorilla beringei). Climate change could increase the abundance and distribution of Culicoides‐borne diseases. We utilized morphological and molecular techniques to identify Culicoides spp.

The model trypanosome and a real trypanosome.
(a) Cell body of the model trypanosome without distortion. The elastic network made from vertices connected by springs defines the surface. The blue line connecting a series of vertices represents the flagellum with the helical half-turn.

Leech blood meals are ingenious biodiversity trackers in Thailand's rainforests. DNA analysis of these meals revealed over 30 vertebrate species, including elusive Malayan Tapirs and Clouded Leopards. Furthermore, multiple host DNAs within single leeches suggest a healthy, abundant wildlife population, making them an effective, noninvasive monitoring ...
