    Stress conditions promote Leishmania hybridization in vitro marked by expression of the ancestral gamete fusogen HAP2 as revealed by single-cell RNA-seq

    Isabelle Louradour, Tiago Rodrigues Ferreira ... David Sacks
    Following exposure of Leishmania culture promastigotes to DNA stress, single-cell RNA sequencing reveals discrete clusters of cells associated with efficient generation of hybrids between different species and strains in vitro marked by expression of the ancestral gamete fusogen HAP2.

    Three-dimensional reconstruction of a whole insect reveals its phloem sap-sucking mechanism at nano-resolution

    Xin-Qiu Wang, Jian-sheng Guo ... Chuan-Xi Zhang
    3D reconstruction for an insect provides new internal structures at nanometer resolution, and the reconstructed feeding insect reveals unexpected contraction of stylet protractors and suggested a novel phloem sap-sucking model.

    Glutamine metabolism modulates azole susceptibility in Trypanosoma cruzi amastigotes

    Peter C Dumoulin, Joshua Vollrath ... Barbara Burleigh
    Trypanosoma cruzi intracellular amastigotes exhibit rapid resistance to azoles, independent of genetic selection, which is dependent on metabolic state and mechanistically distinct from latency.
