<i>Rp-vasa</i> : a <i>bona fide</i> Primordial Germ Cell marker that drives embryonic expression in the Chagas disease vector <i>Rhodnius prolixus</i>
2026-02-11
Abstract excerpt
Rhodnius prolixus is an insect vector of the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi , the causative agent of debilitating Chagas disease, which is transmitted to humans during blood feeding. Identifying germline markers is a critical step in advancing vector control and transgenic technologies of these medically important insects. Transmission of genetic traits to the next generation requires proper differentiation of the g...
