Modelling the potential geographic distribution of triatomines infected by Triatoma virus in the southern cone of South America [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Triatoma virus (TrV) is the only entomopathogenous virus identified in triatomines. We estimated the potential geographic distribution of triatomine species naturally infected by TrV, using remotely sensed and meteorological environmental ...

Molecular data supports monophyly of Triatoma dispar complex within genus Triatoma

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2020
The genus Triatoma contains numerous species, principal or secondary vectors of Chagas disease, which have been included in the three main lineages of Triatomini tribe based on morphological and biogeographical characteristics: North American, South American, and T. dispar complex. The three members of the T.

A revised classification of the assassin bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Reduviidae) based on combined analysis of phylogenomic and morphological data

Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 102-138, January 2025.
This study produces the first combined morphological and molecular phylogenetic analysis for Reduviidae and reveals synapomorphies and diagnostic traits for clades at the ranks of subfamilies and tribes. Based on our resulting robust phylogenetic reconstructions and subsequent optimization of morphological character information, we propose a ...

Infectivity of Aflagellar Epimastigotes of Trypanosoma caninum in the DH82 Cell Line and Mouse Peritoneal Macrophages

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background:Trypanosoma caninum presents aflagellar and flagellar epimastigote, trypomastigote, and spheromastigote forms in axenic cultures. Attempts to utilize trypomastigote forms of T. caninum to develop in vitro and in vivo infection models have failed. To investigate the infection potential of aflagellar epimastigotes, T.
