We identified and characterized the activity of prolixicin, a novel antimicrobial peptide (AMP) isolated from the hemipteran insect, Rhodnius prolixus. Sequence analysis reveals one region of prolixicin that may be related to the diptericin/attacin f

Larvae of Diptera are used routinely in forensic entomology to estimate accurately the post mortem interval. These applications require a detailed understanding of insect growth rates and insect succession profiles under different climactic condition

Rhodnius prolixus not only has served as a model organism for the study of insect physiology, but also is a major vector of Chagas disease, an illness that affects approximately seven million people worldwide. We sequenced the genome of R. prolixus,
