Ten microsatellites were isolated and characterized from a partial genomic library of Rhodnius prolixus, the principal Chagas disease vector in Venezuela, Colombia and Central America. These polymorphic molecular markers could be particularly useful in Chagas disease control initiatives. A wider app
Elimination of vector populations through the use of insecticides is the principal means of controlling Chagas disease. Because of the limitations of insecticide use, we have been developing a new potential method of control, to be used in conjunction with insecticide programs, a method which utiliz
