Under pressure: phenotypic divergence and convergence associated with microhabitat adaptations in Triatominae

2020-07-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Triatomine bugs, the vectors of Chagas disease, associate with vertebrate hosts in highly diverse ecotopes. When these blood-sucking bugs adapt to new microhabitats, their phenotypes may change. Although understanding phenotypic variation is key to the study of adaptive evolution and central to phenotype-based taxonomy, the drivers of phenotypic change and diversity in triatomines remain poorl...
