Adaptive developmental delay in Chagas disease vectors: an evolutionary ecology approach.
BACKGROUND:The developmental time of vector insects is important in population dynamics, evolutionary biology, epidemiology and in their responses to global climatic change. In the triatomines (Triatominae, Reduviidae), vectors of Chagas disease, evolutionary ecology concepts, which may allow for a...
