Loss of Vitellogenin Receptor Function Results in Yolk Depletion, Virome Expansion and Reduced Bacterial Load Within the Oocytes of Rhodnius prolixus

Juliana Amorim, Jéssica Pereira, Matheus Neves, Thamara Rios, Cíntia Lopes Nogueira, Valdir Braz, Leonan Reis, Allana Faria-Reis, Ana Beatriz Walter‐Nuno, Lukas Selim, Daiene Nunes, Thalysson Vinícius de J. C. Baptista, Geórgia C. Atella, Marinella Silva Laport, Ana C. Bahia, , Isabela Ramos
