Characterisation of selected Culicoides (Diptera : Ceratopogonidae) populations in South Africa using genetic markers

Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are small (<3mm) blood feeding flies. These flies are biological vectors of viruses, protozoa and filarial nematodes affecting birds, humans, and other animals.
