New Tsetse (Glossina Fuscipes Fuscipes) Genomes Generated From Wild and Laboratory-Reared Specimens [PDF]
Insect ScienceAbstract Tsetse (Glossina spp.) are vectors of African trypanosomes that cause devastating human and animal African trypanosomiases. While much of the research to better understand tsetse genetics and physiology relies on colony‐reared flies, these flies may not represent the genetic diversity found in natural wild populations due to their long‐term ...

High levels of genetic differentiation between Ugandan Glossina fuscipes fuscipes populations separated by Lake Kyoga. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2008 Glossina fuscipes fuscipes is the major vector of human African trypanosomiasis, commonly referred to as sleeping sickness, in Uganda. In western and eastern Africa, the disease has distinct clinical manifestations and is caused by two different ...

Improving the cost-effectiveness of artificial visual baits for controlling the tsetse fly Glossina fuscipes fuscipes. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2009 Tsetse flies, which transmit sleeping sickness to humans and nagana to cattle, are commonly controlled by stationary artificial baits consisting of traps or insecticide-treated screens known as targets.

The Effect of Age on the Mating Competitiveness of Male Glossina Fuscipes Fuscipes and G. Palpalis Palpalis [PDF]
Journal of Insect Science, 2003 The effect of age on male Glossina fuscipes fuscipes, Newstead, and Glossina palpalis palpalis, Austin (Diptera: Glossinidae) competiveness were investigated with a view to estimate optimal age for sterile male release.

Scientific African, 2018 Tsetse flies (Glossina) depend on their olfactory system to identify host, larviposition sites and mates. Previous studies have characterized olfactory organs and evaluated the odorant receptor (OR) expression to host-derived chemicals.

Identification of Glossina morsitans morsitans odorant binding proteins genes in Glossina fuscipes fuscipes: a preliminary study [PDF]
, 2015 Tsetse flies are vectors of trypanosome parasites, causative agents of Trypanosomiasis in humans and animals. Odorant Binding Proteins (OBPs) are critical in insect olfaction as they bind volatile odours from the environment and transport them to ...
