Macrogeographic genetic structure of Lutzomyia longipalpis complex populations using Next Generation Sequencing.

Macrogeographic genetic structure of Lutzomyia longipalpis complex populations using Next Generation Sequencing.

Lutzomyia longipalpis is the main vector of Leishmania infantum, the causative agent of visceral leishmaniasis in the Neotropical realm. Its taxonomic status has been widely discussed once it encompasses a complex of species. The knowledge about the genetic structure of insect vector populations hel...
