Genome of Rhodnius prolixus, an insect vector of Chagas disease, reveals unique adaptations to hematophagy and parasite infection

Rafael D. Mesquita, +131 more
TL;DR: The first genome sequence of a nondipteran insect vector of an important human parasitic disease is described, which provides critical information on the physiology and evolution of this important vector species and should be instrumental for the development of innovative disease control methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does cosmopolitanism result from overconservative systematics? a case study using the marine sponge chondrilla nucula.

TL;DR: The results reject the null hypothesis of cosmopolitanism of C. nucula and indicate that the putative worldwide distribution of some marine sponges, and possibly many other benthic invertebrates, may be the result of overly conservative systematics.
Journal ArticleDOI

An insight into the transcriptome of the digestive tract of the bloodsucking bug, Rhodnius prolixus.

TL;DR: A new view of the triatomine digestive apparatus is presented and a role for MAP kinases, GTPases, and LKBP1/AMP kinases related to control of cell shape and polarity is suggested, possibly in connection with regulation of cell survival, response of pathogens and nutrients.
Book ChapterDOI

Evolution, Systematics, and Biogeography of the Triatominae, Vectors of Chagas Disease.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the current understanding of how, how many times, and when the blood-feeding habit might have evolved among the Reduviidae, and proposes a global synthesis of the biogeography of the Triatominae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeny and phylogeography of Atlantic oyster species: evolutionary history, limited genetic connectivity and isolation by distance

TL;DR: The phylogenetic relationships between naturally occurring Atlantic Crassostrea oyster species were inferred through analyses of mitochondrial (cytochrome oxidase subunit I and 16S) and nuclear (second internal transcribed spacer) sequences and 15 allozyme loci were scored to study population structuring of C. brasiliana.
