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.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential role for gut microbiota in cell wall digestion and glucoside detoxification in Tenebrio molitor larvae
TL;DR: Analysis of the volatile organic compounds released from the faecal pellets of the larvae shows key differences in the profiles from conventionally reared and aseptically reared larvae, suggesting a detoxifying role of midgut microbiota.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions between intestinal compounds of triatomines and Trypanosoma cruzi
TL;DR: Factors from the insect vector are described, including digestive enzymes, hemolysins, agglutinins, microbiota and especially antimicrobial factors, which are potentially involved in regulating the development of T. cruzi in the gut.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reactive oxygen species-mediated immunity against Leishmania mexicana and Serratia marcescens in the phlebotomine sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis
TL;DR: This study demonstrates a differential response of the sand flies ROS system to gut microbiota, an insect pathogen, and the Leishmania that utilize the sand fly as a vehicle for transmission between mammalian hosts.
