Insect Fluctuating Asymmetry: An Example in Bolivian Peridomestic Populations of <i>Triatoma infestans</i> (Klug, 1834) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) by Carolina Vilaseca, Carlos F. Pinto, Rodrigo Órdenes-Claveria, David Laroze, Marco A. Méndez, Hugo A. Benítez

“…Most of the organisms have bilateral symmetry with a repetition of structures in different positions or orientations; asymmetrical variation has been a morphological response associated with insecticide application inducing disturbances in endocrinal system product of the chemicals. <i>Triatoma infestans</i> (is the main vector of Chagas disease in South America. …”

Phenotypic plasticity, canalisation and developmental stability of Triatoma infestans wings: effects of a sublethal application of a pyrethroid insecticide by Julieta Nattero, Gastón Mougabure-Cueto, Vincent Debat, Ricardo E. Gürtler

“…However, exposure to sublethal insecticide doses after the initial application is a common occurrence and may have phenotypic consequences for survivors. Here, using Triatoma infestans (the main vector of Chagas disease in the Southern Cone of South America) as a model species, we quantified the effects of exposure to a sublethal dose of pyrethroid insecticide on wing morphology. …”
