Figure 2.

The predominant bacteria from the GI tract of triatomines. Bacteria that represent over 1% of microbiomes from triatomine GI tracts belong to the phylum Bacteroidetes (5 genera in the clade in grey), Actinobacteria (14 genera in the clade in purple), Firmicutes (12 genera in the clade in red), and Proteobacteria (33 genera in the clade in green). Bacteria classes with only 1 representative genus are colored in black. The presence of these bacteria in different triatomines is shown as circles on the right side. Dominant bacteria (1%–3% of a microbiome) are represented with small circles and highly dominant bacteria (>3% of a microbiome) are represented with larger circles. The family Nocardiaceae and the order Enterobacteriales have many highly abundant bacteria. Intracellular bacteria are marked with a *. Data to build this figure were taken from [9,74,233,234,235,236,237,238,239,240,241,242,243]. The phylogenetic tree depicting the evolutionary relationships among bacteria was modified after retrieval from the NCBI taxonomy tool.
