Fluctuations in Trypanosoma cruzi discrete typing unit composition in two naturally infected triatomines: Mepraia gajardoi and M. spinolai after laboratory feeding

C Egaña, R Pinto, F Vergara, S Ortiz, R Campos… - Acta tropica, 2016 - Elsevier
Mepraia species are hematophagous insects and the most important wild vectors of
Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease in southeastern South America.
Because the domestic Triatoma infestans is already controlled, the transmission of different
T. cruzi discrete typing units (DTUs) by Mepraia species deserves attention. Our aim is to
gather information on the diversity of T. cruzi DTUs circulating in natural insect populations.
Two groups of naturally infected bugs 21 Mepraia gajardoi and 26 Mepraia spinolai were …
