Chromosomal location of heterochromatin and 45S rDNA sites in four South American triatomines (Heteroptera: Reduviidae)

open access: yesComparative Cytogenetics, 2010
The Triatominae are distributed in Brazilian regions and are the vector of Chagas disease. This group is also characterized by lower karyotype variability, occurrence of holokinetic chromosomes and inverted meiosis of the sex chromosomes.

Flight dispersal of the Chagas disease vectors Triatoma brasiliensis and Triatoma pseudomaculata in northeastern Brazil

open access: yesActa Tropica, 2007
The present paper reports for the first time the capture of wild Triatoma brasiliensis and Triatoma pseudomaculata by means of light traps in Brazil. We tested commercially available lighting devices powered by batteries to attract the bugs to a white piece of cloth in the field.

[Resistence of Triatoma brasiliensis to fasting].

open access: yesRevista de saude publica, 1973
Triatoma brasiliensis suporta prolongados períodos de jejum em condições de laboratório. O número médio de dias que os animais não alimentados e mantidos a 30oC e a 70-80% U.R. resistiram, foi: 33,30 + 1,12; 44,23 + 1,31; 40,28 + 1,78; 48,00 + 1,56; 58,46 + 3,06; 42,63 + 2,38 e 52,33 + 1,83 para ninfas de 1.°, 2.°, 3.° 4.°, 5.° ...
