Microbiomes of Blood-Feeding Triatomines in the Context of Their Predatory Relatives and the Environment

Microbiomes of Blood-Feeding Triatomines in the Context of Their Predatory Relatives and the Environment

ABSTRACT The importance of gut microbiomes has become generally recognized in vector biology. This study addresses microbiome signatures in North American Triatoma species of public health significance (vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi) linked to their blood-feeding strategy and the natural habitat. To...
