History of insecticide resistance of Triatominae vectors [PDF]

open access: yesRevista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2015
In the last 15 years, different types of Triatominae resistance to different insecticides have been reported; thus, resistance may be more widespread than known, requiring better characterization and delimitation, which was the aim of this review. This review was structured on a literature search of all articles from 1970 to 2015 in the PubMed database

Ecological host fitting of Trypanosoma cruzi TcI in Bolivia: mosaic population structure, hybridization and a role for humans in Andean parasite dispersal. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An improved understanding of how a parasite species exploits its genetic repertoire to colonize novel hosts and environmental niches is crucial to establish the epidemiological risk associated with emergent pathogenic genotypes.

TriatoDex, an electronic identification key to the Triatominae (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), vectors of Chagas disease: Development, description, and performance

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Correct identification of triatomine bugs is crucial for Chagas disease surveillance, yet available taxonomic keys are outdated, incomplete, or both. Here we present TriatoDex, an Android app-based pictorial, annotated, polytomous key to the Triatominae.

Phylogenetic structure of geographical co‐occurrence among New World Triatominae species, vectors of Chagas disease

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 47, Issue 6, Page 1218-1231, June 2020., 2020
Abstract Aim The tropical niche conservatism (TNC) hypothesis is one of the most prominent evolutionary hypotheses that has been supported as an explanation for the diversity gradients of several animal taxa, mainly vertebrates. However, the validity of TNC for less‐known taxa such as disease vectors is not clear.

Morphological Aspects of Antennal Sensilla of the Rhodnius brethesi Matta, 1919 (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) from the Negro River, Amazon Region of Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Studies conducted in river Ererê located in the left margin of Negro River, municipality of Barcelos, state of Amazonas, have confirmed that Rhodnius brethesi has as its natural habitat the palm tree Leopoldinia piassaba. By scanning electron microscopy, sensillum type was studied on the antennae of R. brethesi.

Dual and Opposite Roles of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in Chagas Disease: Beneficial on the Pathogen and Harmful on the Host

open access: yesOxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Chagas disease is a neglected tropical disease, which affects an estimate of 6‐7 million people worldwide. Chagas disease is caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, which is a eukaryotic flagellate unicellular organism. At the primary infection sites, these parasites are phagocytized by macrophages, which produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in response to the ...

Feeding and defecation behavior of Triatoma rubida (Uhler, 1894) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) under laboratory conditions, and its potential role as a vector of chagas disease in Arizona, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Chagas disease is caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which is transmitted to humans by blood-sucking triatomine insects. This disease is endemic throughout Mexico and Central and South America, but only a few autochthonous cases have been reported

Phylogenetic approach to the study of Triatomines (Triatominae, Heteroptera) [PDF]

open access: goldBrazilian Journal of Biology, 2006
Triatomines are insects belonging to the Hemiptera order, Heteroptera suborder, Reduviidae family and Triatominae subfamily. All members of this subfamily are hematophagous. Triatomines evolved from Reduviidae predators and they are probably polyphyletic in origin.
