Biology

Trypanosomatids comprise a large group of flagellated unicellular protists with free-living and parasitic lifestyles. Several members of this family are widely known for being vertebrate pathogens of biomedical and veterinary importance. They belong to the order Kinetoplastida, which together with the groups Diplonemida (deep-see organisms) and Euglenida (photosynthetizing organisms) form the phylum Euglenozoa (Simpson et al., 2006; Roger & Simpson, 2009). Kinetoplastids represent one of the… CONTINUE READING
