Making the genome huge: the case of Triatoma delpontei, a Triatominae species with more than 50% of its genome full of satellite DNA

The genome of Triatoma delpontei Romaña & Abalos 1947 is the largest within Heteroptera, approximately two to three times greater than other evaluated Heteroptera genomes. Here, the repetitive fraction of the genome was determined and compared with its sister species Triatoma infestans Klug 1834, in...
