Genome report: First whole genome sequence of <i>Triatoma sanguisuga</i> (Le Conte, 1855), vector of Chagas disease

2024-10-08

Abstract excerpt

Triatoma sanguisuga is the most widespread triatomine bug species in the United States (US). The species vectors the human parasite Trypanosoma cruzi , which causes Chagas disease. Vector-borne Chagas disease is rarely diagnosed in the US, but T. sanguisuga has been implicated in a handful of cases. Despite its public health importance, little is known about the genomics or population genetics of T. sanguisuga...
