Bacterial diversity of the American sand fly Lutzomyia intermedia using high-throughput metagenomic sequencing

31 Aug 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Parasites of the genus Leishmania cause a broad spectrum of diseases, collectively known as leishmaniasis, in humans worldwide. American cutaneous leishmaniasis is a neglected disease transmitted by sand fly vectors including Lutzomyia intermedia, a proven vector. The female sand fly can acquire or deliver Leishmania spp. parasites while feeding on a blood meal, which is required for nutrition, egg...
