Diversity of bacteriome associated with Phlebotomus chinensis (Diptera: Psychodidae) sand flies in two wild populations from China
Sand fly Phlebotomus chinensis is a primary vector of transmission of visceral leishmaniasis in China. The sand flies have adapted to various ecological niches in distinct ecosystems. Characterization of the microbial structure and function will greatly facilitate the understanding of the sand fly ecology, which would provide critical information for developing intervention strategy for sand fl...
متن کاملExperimental transmission of Chandipura virus by Phlebotomus argentipes (diptera: psychodidae).
Experiments were carried out to demonstrate the susceptibity and transmission potential of Phlebotomus argentipes (Annandale & Brunetti) for Chandipura virus (CHPV). In India, P. argentipes is one of the predominant species found in many areas endemic for CHPV. Although its laboratory colonization is difficult, we have demonstrated that 65% of P. argentipes were susceptible to CHPV infection by...
متن کاملLife table characteristics of the female sandfly, Phlebotomus papatasi (Scopoli) (Diptera: Psychodidae) under three food regimes.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES In Egypt, Phlebotomus papatasi is the main vector of cutaneous leishmaniasis. In nature, P. papatasi feeds on blood from different hosts and sucrose (other sugars) mainly from fig fruits. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of three food regimes on the life table parameters of females mainly the life expectancy as a factor determining the fly's capability fo...
متن کاملIs Phlebotomus argentipes Annandale and Brunetti (Diptera: Psychodidae) autogenous?
Phlebotomus argentipes is an established vector of visceral leishmaniasis in India and other countries of the sub-continent1,2. Phlebotomus argentipes is primarily zoophilic as it prefers animal bait seven times more than the human bait in similar situation3. However, the blood meal analysis proves that it is anthropophilic as well as zoophilic in nature4. Female P. argentipes takes blood from ...
متن کاملEffect of temperature on metabolism of Phlebotomus papatasi (Diptera: Psychodidae).
Phlebotomus papatasi (Scopoli) (Diptera: Psychodidae) is the most important vector of Leishmania major, and previous experiments revealed that Leishmania development in the sand fly midgut is significantly affected by temperature. Therefore, we maintained blood-fed P. papatasi females at 23 or 28 degrees C to understand the effect of temperature on bloodmeal digestion and developmental times of...
