The present work assessed the experimental susceptibility of and to () and (.) . A () - combination was used as a susceptible control. Wild-caught and laboratory-bred were membrane-fed on blood with a 5 × 10/mL log-phase promastigote culture suspension and dissected on days 2 and 8 post-blood meal (pbm) for analysis focused on the assessment of parasitoses, as well as placement and promastigote morphotyping. Survival curves were constructed. In all combinations, promastigotes were observed on day 8 pbm. For both species, in , the presence of parasites was observed up to the stomodeal valve, while in , the presence of parasites was observed up to the cardia. There were no significant differences in parasitosis between () and () in either or . Six morphological promastigote forms were distinguished in Giemsa-stained gut smears. The survival curves of all combinations decreased and were affected differently by several -parasite combinations, as well with -uninfected blood. These findings stress as experimentally susceptible to spp. and suggest the putative susceptibility of to () and () .
本研究评估了[具体物种1]和[具体物种2]对[寄生虫1]([寄生虫1学名])和[寄生虫2]([寄生虫2学名])的实验易感性。使用[具体组合]作为易感对照。对野生捕获的[具体物种1]和实验室饲养的[具体物种2]进行膜饲含有5×10⁶/mL对数期前鞭毛体培养悬浮液的血液,并在血餐(pbm)后第2天和第8天解剖,分析重点在于评估寄生虫感染情况以及前鞭毛体的定位和形态分型。构建了生存曲线。在所有组合中,在pbm第8天均观察到前鞭毛体。对于这两个[具体物种],在[具体物种1]中,在口道瓣膜处均观察到寄生虫存在,而在[具体物种2]中,在贲门处观察到寄生虫存在。在[具体物种1]或[具体物种2]中,[寄生虫1]([寄生虫1学名])和[寄生虫2]([寄生虫2学名])之间的寄生虫感染情况没有显著差异。在吉姆萨染色的肠道涂片中共区分出六种形态的前鞭毛体。所有组合的生存曲线均下降,并且受到几种寄生虫 - 宿主组合以及未感染血液的不同影响。这些发现强调[具体物种1]在实验上对[寄生虫1]属物种易感,并表明[具体物种2]可能对[寄生虫1]([寄生虫1学名])和[寄生虫2]([寄生虫2学名])易感。
