Diversity and geographical distribution of Leishmania species in Venezuela.. Diversity and geographical distribution of Leishmania species and the emergence of Leishmania infantum in Central-Western Venezuela.

This work aimed to characterize the landscape of circulating Leishmania parasites species in central-western Venezuela during the last two decades, perform comparisons of haplotype and nucleotide diversity, and build a geospatial map of parasite species distribution in this highly endemic region.
