high local diversity of trypanosoma in a common bat species, and implications for the biogeography and taxonomy of the t. cruzi clade.	the trypanosoma cruzi clade is a group of parasites that comprises t. cruzi sensu lato and its closest relatives. although several species have been confirmed phylogenetically to belong to this clade, it is uncertain how many more species can be expected to belong into this group. here, we present the results of a survey of trypanosome parasites of the bat artibeus jamaicensis from the panamá canal zone, an important seed disperser. using a genealogical species delimitation approach, the poisson ...	2014	25268381
landscape ecology of trypanosoma cruzi in the southern yucatan peninsula.	landscape interactions of trypanosoma cruzi (tc) with triatoma dimidiata (td) depend on the presence and relative abundance of mammal hosts. this study analyzed a landscape adjacent to the calakmul biosphere reserve, composed of conserved areas, crop and farming areas, and the human community of zoh laguna with reported chagas disease cases. sylvatic mammals of the chiroptera, rodentia, and marsupialia orders were captured, and livestock and pets were sampled along with t. dimidiata in all habit ...	2015	26219998
