What happens after a blood meal? A transcriptome response from the main tissues involved in egg production in Rhodnius prolixus, an insect vector of Chagas disease
Jimena Leyria, Ian Orchard, Angela B. Lange
The paper examines how a blood meal affects mRNA expression in the CNS, fat body, and ovaries of Rhodnius prolixus to promote egg production, identifying tissue-specific responses related to metabolism, signaling, and immunity.
