[Leish-l] L.donovani in dogs?

[Patrick Bastien]

Yes. I believe that there are several. But at least several  
identifications from Sudan in Montpellier: see Dereure et al. Microbes  
Infect. 2003 Oct;5(12):1103-8.
Please note that molecular techniques are not reliable to distinguish  
between infantum and donovani, which makes dubious the data of this  
type drawn from molecular ID. The ones quoted above were dont by  
isoenzymes.
Best wishes
