The molecular evolution of Trypanosomatidae.
- J. Stevens, H. Noyes, C. Schofield, W. Gibson
- Biology, Medicine
- Advances in parasitology
- 2001
In the absence of a fossil record, theories relating to the evolution of protozoa have, for most of the twentieth century, been based on morphological and life cycle data despite their known… Expand
A Nested-PCR-Based Schizodeme Method for Identifying Leishmania Kinetoplast Minicircle Classes Directly from Clinical Samples and Its Application to the Study of the Epidemiology of Leishmania…

- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Clinical Microbiology
- 1 October 1998
ABSTRACT A nested PCR was developed to amplify the variable region of the kinetoplast minicircles of all Leishmania species which infect mammals. Each Leishmania parasite contains approximately… Expand
A nested PCR for the ssrRNA gene detects Trypanosoma binneyi in the platypus and Trypanosoma sp. in wombats and kangaroos in Australia.

- International journal for parasitology
- 1 February 1999
Trypanosome infections in their natural hosts are frequently difficult to detect by microscopy, and culture methods are unreliable and not suitable for all species of Trypanosoma. A nested PCR… Expand
DNA extraction and amplification of Leishmania from archived, Giemsa-stained slides, for the diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis by PCR
- H. Motazedian, M. Karamian, H. Noyes, S. Ardehali
- Medicine, Biology
- Annals of tropical medicine and parasitology
- 1 January 2002
Abstract DNA was isolated from 92 Giemsa-stained smears of lesions from suspected cases of cutaneous leishmaniasis and used for PCR-based diagnosis of Leishmania infection. Each smear had been… Expand
The ancient and divergent origins of the human pathogenic trypanosomes, Trypanosoma brucei and T. cruzi.
- J. Stevens, H. Noyes, G. Dover, W. Gibson
- Biology, Medicine
- Parasitology
- 1999
This study presents new findings concerning the evolution of the human pathogens, Trypanosoma brucei and T. cruzi, which suggest that these parasites have divergent origins and fundamentally… Expand
Implications of a Neotropical origin of the genus Leishmania.
- H. Noyes
- Biology, Medicine
- Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz
- 1 September 1998
The hypothesis of a Neotropical origin of the Leishmania/Endotrypanum clade is reviewed. The position of the L. (Sauroleishmania) external to the subgenus L. (Leishmania) is not consistent with the… Expand
Leishmania donovani and Cutaneous Leishmaniasis, Sri Lanka
- H. Siriwardana, H. Noyes, N. Beeching, M. Chance, N. Karunaweera, P. Bates
- Biology, Medicine
- Emerging infectious diseases
- 1 March 2007
To investigate the relationship of cutaneous leishmaniasis isolates from Sri Lanka to known species, we performed DNA sequencing and microsatellite analyses. We identified Leishmania donovani as the… Expand
Phylogeny of Trypanosoma ( Megatrypanum ) theileri and related trypanosomes reveals lineages of isolates associated with artiodactyl hosts diverging on SSU and ITS ribosomal sequences.

- Biology, Medicine
- Parasitology
- 3 October 2005
SSU ribosomal sequences of trypanosomes from Brazilian cattle and water buffalo were used to infer phylogenetic relationships between non-pathogenic T. theileri and allied species parasitic in… Expand
Leishmania donovani is the only cause of visceral leishmaniasis in East Africa; previous descriptions of L. infantum and "L. archibaldi" from this region are a consequence of convergent evolution in…

- Biology, Medicine
- Parasitology
- 1 October 2004
Isoenzyme-based studies have identified 3 taxa/species/'phylogenetic complexes' as agents of visceral leishmaniasis in Sudan: L. donovani, L. infantum and "L. archibaldi". However, these observations… Expand
A previously unclassified trypanosomatid responsible for human cutaneous lesions in Martinique (French West Indies) is the most divergent member of the genus Leishmania ss.

- 2002
Two cases of skin lesions similar to those caused by Leishmania parasites have been reported from Martinique. Parasites isolated from these lesions were unlike Leishmania reference strains by… Expand
