| genetic variation, population structure, and phylogenetic relationships of triatoma rubida and t. recurva (hemiptera: reduviidae: triatominae) from the sonoran desert, insect vectors of the chagas' disease parasite trypanosoma cruzi. | nucleotide and amino acid sequence data from the mitochondrial cytochrome b (cytb) and cytochrome c oxidase subunit i (coi) gene segments were used to gain insights into the population biology and phylogenetic relationships of two species of hematophagous kissing bugs (hemiptera: reduviidae: triatominae) from the sonoran desert of northwestern mexico and southern arizona, usa, triatoma rubida (uhler, 1894) and t. recurva (stål, 1868), both of which are vectors of the protozoan parasite trypanoso ... | 2006 | 16934496 |
| agent of chagas' disease from honduran vector capable of developing in california insects: implications for cardiologists. | an exotic strain of trypanosoma cruzi recovered from triatoma dimidiata from tegucigalpa, honduras, was shown by isoenzyme studies to be closely related to the miles' zymodeme 1 and laboratory reference strain tehuantepec. it was injected into swiss random-bred icr mice. clean triatoma protracta nymphs and adults, which had been captured in winters, california, fed on inoculated mice and were then examined over a 15-month period. their feces contained multiplying epimastigote and infective trypo ... | 1985 | 3929580 |
| exotic stock of trypanosoma cruzi (schizotrypanum) capable of development in and transmission by triatoma protracta protracta from california: public health implications. | a stock of trypanosoma cruzi was recovered from a triatoma dimidiata from tegucigalpa, honduras. this stock was shown to be capable of development and transmission by native california triatoma protracta protracta. isozyme analysis indicated that this t. cruzi is closely related to the tehuantepec strain and to a lesser extent the miles' zymodeme 1 strain. the potential public health significance of development and transmission of exotic stocks of t. cruzi by native reduviids is discussed. | 1987 | 3107409 |
