DGGE fingerprints of bacterial 16S rRNA gene fragments amplified from gut microbiota of T. pseudomaculata (Tp) and T. brasiliensis (Tb) collected in peridomestic habitats (Russas, Ceará, Brazil). A - N correspond to the 14 band profiles identified in the triatomine samples 32Tb, 16Tp, 37Tb, 13Tp, 15Tp, 14Tp, 17Tp, 19Tp, 20Tp, 21Tp, 25Tb, 27Tb, 35Tb, and 50Tp, respectively. Numbers indicate sequenced bands: Serratia (5 to 8, 12, 13 and 15); Pantoea (31); Enterococcus (1 and 19); Bacteroidetes (35); Gordonia (2, 10, 26, 32 and 34); Mycobacterium (3, 4, 9, 11, 22 to 25, 27, 29 and 39); Corynebacterium (20); Dietzia (18); Rhodococcus (28, 37 and 38); Enterobacteriaceae (14, 16, 17, 20, 21 and 30); and Nocardiaceae (33 and 36).
