The nucleotide sequences of the rDNA second internal transcribed spacer (ITS-2) of 31
populations of 12 and 3 species of the two main Triatominae tribes Triatomini and Rhodniini …

Abstract Background The Triatomini and Rhodniini (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) tribes include
the most diverse Chagas disease vectors; however, the phylogenetic relationships within the …

Abstract Background Chagas disease vectors (Hemiptera-Reduviidae) comprise more than
140 blood-sucking insect species of the Triatominae subfamily. The largest genus is …

Abstract The subfamily Triatominae (Hemiptera, Reduviidae), vectors of Chagas disease,
includes over 140 species. Karyotypic information is currently available for 80 of these …

The triatomines vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi are principal factors in acquiring Chagas
disease. For this reason, increased knowledge of domestic transmission of T. cruzi and …

Nucleotide and amino acid sequence data from the mitochondrial cytochrome b (Cytb) and
cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene segments were used to gain insights into the …

Eleven of 27 decameric primers were found to be suitable for random amplification of
polymorphic DNA (RAPD) from triatomine bugs on the basis that they produced discrete …

The purpose of this work was to clarify the taxonomy and phylogenetic relationship of the
Phyllosoma complex and other important vectors in Mexico. The internal transcribed spacer …

Chagas disease, whose etiological agent is the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, affects
millions of people worldwide and it is mainly transmitted by infected triatomine feces …

Abstract Aim The tribe Rhodniini is one of six comprising the subfamily Triatominae
(Heteroptera: Reduviidae), notorious as blood‐sucking household pests and vectors of …
