The Sensory Ecology of Tsetse Flies: Neuroscience Perspectives on a Disease Vector. [PDF]

open access: yesEur J Neurosci
Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are important disease vectors that feed on vertebrate blood. Host‐seeking depends on a combination of sensory systems, from long‐range senses like olfaction and vision, to shorter‐range senses such as audition, mechanosensation, thermosensation and taste.

The population genomics of multiple tsetse fly (Glossina fuscipes fuscipes) admixture zones in Uganda. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol, 2019
AbstractUnderstanding the mechanisms that enforce, maintain or reverse the process of speciation is an important challenge in evolutionary biology. This study investigates the patterns of divergence and discusses the processes that form and maintain divergent lineages of the tsetse flyGlossina fuscipes fuscipesin Uganda.

The effect of age on the mating competitiveness of male Glossina fuscipes fuscipes and G. palpalis palpalis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

Structure of some East African Glossina fuscipes fuscipes populations [PDF]

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, 2008
Abstract Glossina fuscipes fuscipes Newstead 1910 (Diptera: Glossinidae) is the primary vector of human sleeping sickness in Kenya and Uganda. This is the first report on its population structure.

Genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships of tsetse flies of the palpalis group in Congo Brazzaville based on mitochondrial cox1 gene sequences

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Despite the morphological characterization established in the 1950s and 1960s, the identity of extant taxa that make up Glossina fuscipes (s.l.) in the Congo remains questionable. Previous claims of overlap between G.

Spatio-temporal distribution of Spiroplasma infections in the tsetse fly (Glossina fuscipes fuscipes) in northern Uganda. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Negl Trop Dis, 2019
AbstractTsetse flies (Glossina spp.) are vectors of parasitic trypanosomes, which cause human (HAT) and animal African trypanosomiasis (AAT) in sub-Saharan Africa. In Uganda, Glossina fuscipes fuscipes (Gff) is the main vector of HAT, where it transmits Gambiense disease in the northwest and Rhodesiense disease in central, southeast and western regions.

A spatial genetics approach to inform vector control of tsetse flies (Glossina fuscipes fuscipes) in Northern Uganda. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2018
AbstractTsetse flies (genus Glossina) are the only vector for the parasitic trypanosomes responsible for sleeping sickness and nagana across sub‐Saharan Africa. In Uganda, the tsetse fly Glossina fuscipes fuscipes is responsible for transmission of the parasite in 90% of sleeping sickness cases, and co‐occurrence of both forms of human‐infective ...

Field responses of Glossina pallidipes and Glossina fuscipes fuscipes tsetse flies to Novel Repellent Blend and Waterbuck Repellent Compounds in Kenya. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Negl Trop Dis
Control of tsetse flies constitutes a cornerstone of trypanosomiasis control and elimination efforts in Africa. The use of eco-friendly odor-based bait technologies has been identified as a safer method for control of tsetse flies. These technologies are significantly augmented by development of effective repellents that reduce contact between ...
