description: 'VectorBase is part of the VEuPathDB, a NIAID-funded Bioinformatic Resource
  Center focused on invertebrate vectors of human pathogens and related species of
  interest. Currently, VectorBase contains genome information for approximately 80
  organisms: mosquitoes, bed bugs, biting midges, ticks, tsetse flies, mites, sand
  flies, house flies, body lice, stable flies, kissing bugs, and a snail which is
  an intermediate host.'
