Improvement of colony management in insect mass‐rearing for sterile insect technique applications
Abstract Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) applications against major insect pests and disease vectors rely on the cost‐effective production of high‐quality sterile males. This largely depends on the optimal management of target pest colonies by maximizing the benefits provided by a genetically rich and pathogen‐free mother colony, the presence of ...

Un cas d'exclusion géographique chez les glossines : l'avancée de Glossina palpalis palpalis vers Brazzaville (Congo) au détriment de G. fuscipes quanzensis [PDF]
La ligne de contact entre #G. p. palpalis$ et #G. f. quanzensis$ passe à proximité de Brazzaville, au sud et sud-ouest de la capitale congolaise. Des observations faites de 1948 à 1961 ont permis de mettre en évidence une avancée de #G. p. palpalis$ vers

Spatial distribution of Glossina sp. and Trypanosoma sp. in south-western Ethiopia [PDF]
Background Accurate information on the distribution of the tsetse fly is of paramount importance to better control animal trypanosomosis. Entomological and parasitological surveys were conducted in the tsetse belt of south-western Ethiopia to describe ...

Abstract Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) has proven effective to reduce tsetse population density in large infected areas where animal African trypanosomosis (AAT) and human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) elimination was difficult to achieve. However, the decrease in mass production of insectary‐reared tsetse and the limited but incomplete knowledge on ...

Profiling of wild and laboratory tsetse populations using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing allowed us to examine whether the “Wigglesworthia-Sodalis-Wolbachia dogma” operates across species and populations. The most abundant taxa, in wild and laboratory

Les glossines de l'agglomération brazzavilloise Congo . I. Répartition et importance des gîtes
Les auteurs font le point - historique et actuel - sur les gîtes à tsé-tsé de l'agglomération brazzavilloise. De 1980 à 1985, le parc zoologique était le seul gîte intra-urbain productif en glossines.

In the Dara district of the Sidama region, cattle production is still seriously threatened by Glossina spp. and trypanosomosis. Therefore, a sustainable community‐based tsetse and trypanosomosis control program should be put into place. ABSTRACT In sub‐Saharan Africa, animal trypanosomosis is a wasting disease that reduces livestock's health and ...

Improving the cost-effectiveness of visual devices for the control of riverine tsetse flies, the major vectors of human African trypanosomiasis. [PDF]
Control of the Riverine (Palpalis) group of tsetse flies is normally achieved with stationary artificial devices such as traps or insecticide-treated targets.

La lutte par piégeage contre Glossina fuscipes fuscipes pour la protection de l'élevage en République centrafricaine. I. Mise au point d'un piège adapté à un milieu d'éleveurs semi-nomades [PDF]
La recherche d'un nouveau piège destiné à la prise en charge par les éleveurs centrafricains (Peuls) de la lutte contre Glossina fuscipes fuscipes a été réalisée en expérimentant séparément le système de capture, le corps du piège et les matériaux.
