We analysed the chromosome complement and male meiosis in a natural population of
Mepraia gajardoi (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae). The normal karyotype of this …

Abstract Triatomainfestans (2n= 20 A+ XY, male) is a blood-sucking bug and the most
important vector of Chagas disease in the Southern Cone countries. A cytogenetic analysis …

The chromosome number and meiotic cycle of Triatoma brasiliensis, T. delpontei, T.
lecticularia, T. rubrovaria and T. sordida were investigated. All 5 species presented the same …

A cytogenetic analysis was performed in experimental hybrids between species of Chagas
disease transmitting bugs with remarkable differences in the amount and distribution of …

In this further part of a series [see preceding abstract, etc.], the results are presented of
studies on the meiotic metaphase in the testes of Rhodnius neivai Lent, R. robustus …

In the present work, we analysed the male meiosis, the content and distribution of
heterochromatin and the number and location of nucleolus organizing regions in …

In this first part of a series [see also next 2 abstracts], the karyotypes of 5 species of
Rhodnius that occur in Venezuela are described. The species are R. prolixus Stal, R. neivai …

C-banded karyotypes, DNA content and the male meiiotic process of Triatoma platensis and
Triatoma delpontei are compared with those of Triatoma infestans, the main vector of …

Heteropteran insects are characterized by holokinetic chromosomes, and, in most species,
the post-reductional meiotic division of sex chromosomes and the presence of one chiasma …
