The juvenile hormone described in Rhodnius prolixus by Wigglesworth is juvenile hormone III skipped bisepoxide

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Juvenile hormones (JHs) are sesquiterpenoids synthesized by the corpora allata (CA). They play critical roles during insect development and reproduction.

Nota sobre a diferenciação de ovos de Rhodnius neglectus e R. prolixus Note on the differentiation between the Rhodnius neglectus and the R. prolixus eggs

open access: yesRevista de Saúde Pública, 1974
Descreve-se característica morfológica diferencial que permite distinguir os ovos de Rhodnius neglectus e R. prolixus. Trata-se de formação saliente ao redor da região pré-opercular disposta à maneira de "colarinho", existente na primeira e ausente na ...

Transcriptomic analysis of regulatory pathways involved in female reproductive physiology of Rhodnius prolixus under different nutritional states

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
The triatomine Rhodnius prolixus, a vector of the etiological agent of Chagas disease, has long been used as model to understand important aspects of insect physiology.

Thermosensation and the TRPV channel in Rhodnius prolixus

open access: yesJournal of Insect Physiology, 2015
The thermal sense of triatomine bugs, vectors of Chagas disease, is unique among insects. Not only do these bugs exhibit the highest sensitivity to heat known in any animal up to date, but they can also perceive the infrared radiation emitted by the body of their warm-blooded hosts.

Deltamethrin resistance in Chagas disease vectors colonizing oil palm plantations: implications for vector control strategies in a public health-agriculture interface

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Triatomine bugs are responsible for the vectorial transmission of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, etiological agent of Chagas disease, a zoonosis affecting 10 million people and with 25 million at risk of infection.

Analysis of ovarian transcriptomes reveals thousands of novel genes in the insect vector Rhodnius prolixus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Rhodnius prolixus is a Triatominae insect species and a primary vector of Chagas disease. The genome of R. prolixus has been recently sequenced and partially assembled, but few transcriptome analyses have been performed to date.

The roles of haemolymphatic lipoproteins in the oogenesis of Rhodnius prolixus [PDF]

open access: yesMemórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1987
The fates of purified 32P-vitellin and 32P-lipophorin were followed in vitellogenic females of Rhodnius prolixus. While the radioactivity from 32P-vitellin 6 hours after injection was found almost exclusively in the ovary, the radioactivity from injected 32P-lipophorin was found distributed among several organs. In the ovary, the radioactivity from 32P-

Elimination of Rhodnius prolixus in El Salvador, Central America

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2012
Epidemiological studies performed in El Salvador between 1955-1972 demonstrated a high frequency of two triatomine vectors (Triatoma dimidiata and Rhodnius prolixus). However, the frequency of R.

Experimental Infection of Rhodnius prolixus (Hemiptera, Triatominae) with Mycobacterium leprae Indicates Potential for Leprosy Transmission.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Leprosy is a chronic dermato-neurological disease caused by infection with Mycobacterium leprae. In 2013 almost 200,000 new cases of leprosy were detected around the world.
