In this study, we report and discuss the results generated from over 20 years of studies of the
Trypanosoma cruzi sylvatic transmission cycle. Our results have uncovered new aspects …

Landscape interactions of Trypanosoma cruzi (Tc) with Triatoma dimidiata (Td) depend on
the presence and relative abundance of mammal hosts. This study analyzed a landscape …

Trypanosoma cruzi is a generalist multihost parasite transmitted by dozens of Triatominae
vectors to hundreds free ranging hosts/reservoirs mammal species that include terrestrial …

Aiming to better understand the ecological aspects of Trypanosoma cruzi transmission
cycles, wild carnivores, small mammals and dogs were examined for T. cruzi infection in the …

Abstract Trypanosoma cruzi (Kinetoplastea: Trypanosomatidae) infects all tissues of its
hosts, which along with humans, include hundreds of mammalian species in the Americas …

Little is known on the role played by Neotropical wild carnivores in the Trypanosoma cruzi
transmission cycles. We investigated T. cruzi infection in wild carnivores from three sites in …

Trypanosoma cruzi genetic diversity was investigated in 25 isolates (vectors and humans)
from the semiarid zone of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Molecular markers (3 …

American trypanosamiasis occurs in nature as a sylvatic cycle, where Trypanosoma cruzi
interacts with wild triatomines and mammalian reservoirs, such as marsupials, rodents …

We characterized 28 new isolates of Trypanosoma cruzi IIc (TCIIc) of mammals and
triatomines from Northern to Southern Brazil, confirming the widespread distribution of this …

Despite its clonal structure (Miles & Cibulskis 1986, Tibayrenc & Ayala 1986)
Trypanosomacruzi presents an extreme variability and the seminal studies described the …
