A report, "Genome size determination in chagas disease transmitting bugs (hemiptera-triatominae) by flow cytometry," is newly published data in The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. "Because information about genome size in triatomines is scarce and contradictory, we performed DNA quantification by flow cytometry in 13 species belonging to five genera (Dipetalogaster, Eratyrus, Panstrongylus, Rhodnius, and Triatoma) to infer overall tendencies and phylogenetic associations. The results show that the haploid DNA content of the subfamily Triatominae varies nearly 4-fold, from <0.7 pg in Rhodnius species (0.6x10(9) bp) to 2.7 pg in Triatoma delpontei (2.6x10(9)...
