Sodalis glossinidius prevalence and trypanosome presence in tsetse from Luambe National Park, Zambia

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background Tsetse flies are the biological vectors of African trypanosomes, the causative agents of sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in animals. The tsetse endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius has been suggested to play a role in tsetse susceptibility

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 ...

Hytrosavirus genetic diversity and eco-regional spread in Glossina species

BMC Microbiology, 2018
Background The management of the tsetse species Glossina pallidipes (Diptera; Glossinidae) in Africa by the sterile insect technique (SIT) has been hindered by infections of G.

Impact of habitat fragmentation on tsetse populations and trypanosomosis risk in Eastern Zambia [PDF]

, 2015
[b]Background[/b]: Fragmentation of tsetse habitat in eastern Zambia is largely due to encroachments by subsistence farmers into new areas in search of new agricultural land.

Developing heterospecific sterile insect technique for pest control: insights from the spotted wing fly Drosophila suzukii

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 9, Page 5214-5223, September 2025.
Irradiated Drosophila melanogaster males successfully court and mate with D. suzukii females and significantly reduce numbers of D. suzukii offspring under different species ratios. Abstract BACKGROUND Reproductive interference (i.e. sexual interaction between males of one species and females of another species that reduce the fitness of one or both ...

Citizen scientists mapping the United Kingdom's and Republic of Ireland's flat flies (louse flies) (Diptera: Hippoboscidae) reveal a vector's range shift

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 559-575, September 2025.
The Common or Bird Louse Fly Ornithomya avicularia, a vector of Haemoproteus sp. and trypanosomes, has undergone a major northwards range expansion in the United Kingdom since the 1960s. The Finch Louse Fly Ornithomya fringillina has also expanded its range northwards and westwards, and the Swallow Louse Fly Ornithomya biloba is now established in ...

Insect chemosensory proteins as targets in insecticide resistance and development

New Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2025.
This review addresses the biological and chemical properties of insect chemosensory proteins (CSPs) and presents their functional advancements, not only in olfaction but also in nonolfactory processes, particularly in relation to insecticide resistance.

Influence of temperature and relative humidity on survival and fecundity of three tsetse strains [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Tsetse flies occur in much of sub-Saharan Africa where they are vectors of trypanosomes that cause human and animal African trypanosomosis.

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 ...
