Lutzomyia longipalpis urbanisation and control
Since the description of Lutzomyia longipalpis by Lutz and Neiva more than 100 years ago, much has been written in the scientific literature about this phlebotomine species. Soares and Turco (2003) and Lainson and Rangel (2005) have written extensive reviews focused on vector-host-parasite interactions and American visceral leishmaniasis ecology. However, during the last two decades, the succes...
متن کاملBioinformatics for plant genome annotation
High throughput sequencing must be matched by high throughput annotation. Given the large number of annotation tools available, a multitude of interdependent analyses are required for an in-depth annotation of even a single BAC sequence. Special annotation pipeline software is required to make such annotation processes feasible in an automated fashion. In terms of functionality, such software s...
متن کاملLutzomyia longipalpis (Diptera: Psychodidae: Phlebotominae): a review.
Lutzomyia longipalpis is the most important vector of AmericanVisceral Leishmaniasis (AVL) due to Leishmania chagasi in the New World. Despite its importance, AVL, a disease primarily of rural areas, has increased its prevalence and became urbanized in some large cities in Brazil and other countries in Latin America. Although the disease is treatable, other control measures include elimination ...
متن کاملEcology of Lutzomyia longipalpis and Lutzomyia migonei in an endemic area for visceral leishmaniasis Ecologia de Lutzomyia longipalpis e Lutzomyia migonei em uma área endêmica para Leishmaniose Visceral
The main vector for visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Brazil is Lutzomyia longipalpis. However, the absence of L. longipalpis in a region of autochthonous VL demonstrates the participation of other species in the transmission of the parasite. Studies conducted in La Banda, Argentina, and São Vicente Férrer, Pernambuco State, Brazil, have correlated the absence of L. longipalpis and the presence of...
