The mitogenome of Triatoma brasiliensis brasiliensis (Hemiptera: Reduviidae), the main Chagas disease vector in the semi-arid region of northeastern Brazil
The availability of this mitogenome provides insights into the systematics, biology, and genomics of triatomine species while also enhancing our understanding of their evolutionary relationships. However, the limited number of available mitogenomes, particularly for South American Triatoma species, underscores the need for further sequencing efforts to improve phylogenetic resolution and support comparative genomic studies.
