Proteophosophoglycans regurgitated by Leishmania-infected sand flies target the L-arginine metabolism of host macrophages to promote parasite survival.
All natural Leishmania infections start in the skin; however, Herbal Teas little is known of the contribution made by the sand fly vector to the earliest events in mammalian infection, especially in inflamed skin that can rapidly kill invading parasites.During transmission sand flies regurgitate a proteophosphoglycan gel synthesized by the parasite
Polyploidization and speciation: patterns of natural hybridization and gene flow in basil (Ocimum spp.)
The genus Ocimum maintains rich diversity of species through natural and artificial outcrossing.Africa is named as one of the epicentres of plant diversity including numerous Ocimum species.Cytological evidence has attributed such diversity to extensive genome augmentation through selection, speciation, polyploidy and hybridization.This study ORG B
