Comparative genomics identifies male accessory gland proteins in five Glossina species [version 2; referees: 2 approved]

Wellcome Open Research, 2017
Accessory gland proteins (ACPs) are important reproductive proteins produced by the male accessory glands (MAGs) of most insect species. These proteins are essential for male insect fertility, and are transferred alongside semen to females during ...

Improving the cost-effectiveness of visual devices for the control of riverine tsetse flies, the major vectors of human African trypanosomiasis. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2011
Control of the Riverine (Palpalis) group of tsetse flies is normally achieved with stationary artificial devices such as traps or insecticide-treated targets.

Spatiotemporal changes in prevalence of Sodalis glossinidius, Spiroplasma spp. and trypanosome species in wild Glossina tachinoides from Sora‐Mboum animal African trypanosomiasis focus in northern Cameroon

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1713-1725, October 2025.
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 ...

Biométrie de la glossine : étude statistique des mensurations de l'aile dans diverses communautés

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1964
Des mensurations ont été faites dans quatre lots de tsé-tsé de la même sous-espèce: Glossina fuscipes quanzensis Pires; chacun de ces lots provenait d'une localité distincte.

Bovine Trypanosomosis: Seasonal Prevalence and Vector Density in Dara District, Sidama Region, Ethiopia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
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 ...

Notes on the Occurrence and Habits of Glossina Fuscipes in Uganda [PDF]

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1912
When I assumed duty in the Nile Province of the Uganda Protectorate, it was known to me that Dr. Shircore had taken a tsetse-fly near Nimule, which he considered to be nearly allied to, but distinct from, G. palpalis. I had been asked to take an early opportunity of examining the haunt of these insects and capturing further specimens.

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

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1991
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.

Drivers of genomic diversity and phenotypic development in early phases of domestication in Hermetia illucens

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 756-776, December 2024.
Random drift rather than selection is the primary evolutionary force driving genomic and phenotypic variation in BSF populations during early phases of domestication. Functional trade‐offs between production and fitness traits were observed in BSF populations.

Pratiques pastorales Mbororo et trypanosomoses bovines dans une zone de savanes humides de Centrafrique

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1995
L'étude a porté sur l'agencement de l'espace pastoral chez les éleveurs Mbororo de Centrafrique et les mouvements de leurs zébus à robe acajou. Outre le campement des éleveurs, cet espace est divisé en trois compartiments principaux : l'aire de repos, l ...

Phenotypic divergence of Glossina morsitans (Diptera: Glossinidae) populations in Zambia: Application of landmark‐based wing geometric morphometrics to discriminate population‐level variation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
Land‐mark based geomorphometric wing analysis of Glossina morsitans populations in Zambia shows that this tsetse exhibit significant population‐level variation in fly size and wing shape suggesting high levels of population structuring. The main drivers of this structuring could be random genetic drift and local adaptation to environmental conditions ...
