Untangling the transmission dynamics of primary and secondary vectors of Trypanosoma cruzi in Colombia : Parasite infection, feeding sources and discrete typing units

Background: Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease. Due to its genetic diversity has been classified into six Discrete Typing Units (DTUs) in association with transmission cycles. In Colombia, natural T. cruzi infection has been detected in 15 triatomine species. There is scarce...
