- Strigomonas culicis (nombrado inicialmente como Blastocrithidia culicis) es un protista perteneciente a la familia Trypanosomatidae, donde se encuadran otros géneros más conocidos como son Leishmania y Trypanosoma. Esta especie es parásito de insectos, por ejemplo infecta a Aedes aegypti, pero no es patogénica para humanos. La secuenciación del genoma de este microorganismo ha sido realizada por un consorcio de investigadores brasileños dirigidos por Sergio Schenkman y Ana Tereza Ribeiro de Vasconcelos. (es)
- Strigomonas culicis is a protist and member of flagellated trypanosomatids. It is an obligate parasite in the gastrointestinal tract of mosquito, and is in turn a host to symbiotic bacteria. It maintains strict mutualistic relationship with the bacteria as a sort of cell organelle (endosymbiont) so that it cannot lead an independent life without the bacteria. This and other symbiont-harbouring trypanosomatids such as Angomonas deanei are considered as "excellent models for the study of cell evolution because the host protozoan co-evolves with an intracellular bacterium in a mutualistic relationship", and "the origin of new organelles" (i.e. symbiogenesis). Originally described as Blastocrithidia culicis in 1961, it was renamed Strigomonas culicis in 2011 upon establishing its genetic relationship with other related protists. The obligate bacterium belongs a group of ß-proteobacterium and provides nutrients to the host, in addition to influencing some of the cellular functions. (en)
