Application of Inter-Simple Sequence Repeat Markers in the Analysis of Populations of the Chagas Disease Vector Triatoma infestans (Hemiptera, Reduviidae).

Abstract excerpt

Here we apply inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers to explore the fine-scale genetic structure and dispersal in populations of Triatoma infestans. Five selected primers from 30 primers were used to amplify ISSRs by polymerase chain reaction. A total of 90 polymorphic bands were detected across 134 individuals captured from 11 peridomestic sites from the locality of San Martín (Capayán Department, Catamarca...
