Pediculus humanus is an obligate bloodsucking ectoparasite of human that includes two
ecotypes, head louse and body louse, which differ slightly in morphology and biology, but …

This review investigates ancient infectious diseases in the Americas dated to the pre-
colonial period and considers what these findings can tell us about the history of the …

Background Head lice, Pediculus humanus capitis, occur in four divergent mitochondrial
clades (A, B, C and D), each having particular geographical distributions. Recent studies …

Background Pediculus humanus, which includes two ecotypes (body and head lice), is an
obligate bloodsucking parasite that co-evolved with their human hosts over thousands of …

Pediculus humanus is an obligate and highly intimate bloodsucking insect parasite of
humans that has two ecotypes, head louse and body louse. This study analyzed genetic …

Background Human lice, Pediculus humanus, are obligate blood-sucking parasites. Body
lice, Pediculus h. humanus, occur in two divergent mitochondrial clades (A and D) each …

In this study, we assessed the genetic diversity of Ascaris lumbricoides/Ascaris suum
circulating in humans and pigs, exploring potential zoonotic cycles in endemic areas in …

The human head louse, Pediculus humanus capitis, is subdivided into several significantly
divergent mitochondrial haplogroups, each with particular geographical distributions …

Abstract Background Head louse, Pediculus humanus capitis, is an obligatory blood-sucking
ectoparasite, distributed worldwide. Phylogenetically, it occurs in five divergent …

The present work aimed at investigating the genetic diversity of the head louse Pediculus
