Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8132-8151, September 2026.
Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Comparative genomic analysis of six Glossina genomes, vectors of African trypanosomes

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2019
Background Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are the vectors of human and animal trypanosomiasis throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Tsetse flies are distinguished from other Diptera by unique adaptations, including lactation and the birthing of live young ...

A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 9, Page 1011-1021, September 2026.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...

Tsetse EP protein protects the fly midgut from trypanosome establishment. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
African trypanosomes undergo a complex developmental process in their tsetse fly vector before transmission back to a vertebrate host. Typically, 90% of fly infections fail, most during initial establishment of the parasite in the fly midgut.

Comparative evaluation of the attractiveness of new polyethylene screens versus West African tiny target for the control of tsetse flies

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 489-497, September 2026.
The material has no significant difference in captures (non‐shiny cotton‐polyester screens vs. the shiny polyethylene screens), but the vertical screen attracted significantly more G. tachinoides for each type of material. Full white horizontal screen was significantly lower than the reference WATT.

DNA barcoding and geometric morphometry of tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) in Thailand and a new record of a Thai horse fly

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 498-511, September 2026.
Tabanus tenens identified in this study is a newly recorded species in Thailand. DNA barcoding using the cox1 gene identified tabanid species in the present study. WGM data from different sites served as a reference for species identification. Abstract Tabanid flies are gaining high medical and veterinary importance due to their role as a vector of ...

Expansions of chemosensory gene orthologs among selected tsetse fly species and their expressions in Glossina morsitans morsitans tsetse fly.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
Tsetse fly exhibit species-specific olfactory uniqueness potentially underpinned by differences in their chemosensory protein repertoire. We assessed 1) expansions of chemosensory protein orthologs in Glossina morsitans morsitans, Glossina pallidipes ...

Molecular Genetics of Hepatozoon canis With a Note on Effect of Parasite on the Complete Blood Count Profile of Canine Hosts

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
A total of 654 blood samples were collected from healthy dogs in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provinces in Pakistan and screened for the presence of Hepatozoon canis. Genetic diversity of the detected H. canis DNA, infection‐associated risk factors, and changes in the complete blood count of the host due to parasitic activity were also evaluated.

A Dipterous Parasite of Glossina morsitans

open access: yesBulletin of Entomological Research, 1914
The Imperial Bureau of Entomology has recently received from Mr. Ll. Lloyd, Entomologist to the British South Africa Company in Northern Rhodesia, a small Bombyliid fly accompanied by the following letter, dated “Mwengwa, Mumbwa, viâ Broken Hill, N. Rhodesia, November 1, 1913.—I am sending you herewith a specimen of a Dipteron, which I believe to be a ...

ETUDE DE BASE ENTOMOLOGIQUE EN PRELUDE A UNE CAMPAGNE DE LUTTE CONTRE LA TRYPANOSOMIASE DANS LES CERCLES DE KADIOLO ET SIKASSO AU MALI

open access: yesRevue Malienne d’Infectiologie et de Microbiologie, 2016
Le projet TCP/MLI/3402 FAO intitulé " Appui à la lutte contre la mouche tsé-tsé et les trypanosomoses dans les cercles de Sikasso et Kadiolo, au Mali " a été crée pour appuyer le Projet de Lutte contre la Mouche tsé-tsé et les trypanosomoses (PLMT) dans ...
