Interestingly, colonies of Triato[...]texto impreso
Castillo-Neyra, Ricardo ; Barbu, Corentin M. ; Salazar, Renzo ; Borrini, Katty ; Náquira, César ; Levy, Michael Z. | Public Library of Science | 2019-02-06T14:53:10ZChagas disease affects millions of people in Latin America. The control of this vector-borne disease focuses on halting transmission by reducing or eliminating insect vector populations. Most transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative age[...]texto impreso
