| morphometric analysis of triatoma dimidiata populations (reduviidae:triatominae) from mexico and northern guatemala. | triatoma dimidiata is one of the major vectors of chagas disease in latin america. its range includes mexico, all countries of central america, colombia, and ecuador. in light of recent genetic analysis suggesting that the possible origin of this species is the yucatan peninsula, we have analyzed populations from the state of yucatan, san luis potosi, and veracruz in mexico, and a population from the southern region of the yucatan peninsula located in northern guatemala, the region of el peten. ... | 2005 | 16184224 |
| cuticular hydrocarbon variability among triatoma dimidiata (hemiptera: reduviidae) populations from mexico and guatemala. | the geographic variation in the cuticular hydrocarbon pattern among 11 populations of triatoma dimidiata latreille (hemiptera: reduviidae: triatominae) from different regions of mexico and guatemala, was studied using capillary gas chromatography. t. dimidiata populations were differentiated based on the relative amounts of 71 hydrocarbon components. insect population classification was mostly in agreement with their geographical vicinity; mexican populations from the yucatan peninsula grouped t ... | 2005 | 16363161 |
