Polytene chromosomes of the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans morsitans
Chromosoma, 1973Cytological maps have been prepared, and a detailed description is presented of all major markers in the polytene chromosomes of the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans morsitans, an important vector of African trypanosomiases. Only the five eu-chromosomes in males (L1 and L2 autosome pairs plus X chromosome) and the six eu-chromosomes in females of the ...

The compound eye of the tsetse fly (Glossina morsitans morsitans and Glossina palpalis palpalis)
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1989Abstract We have examined the retina of the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans and G. palpalis using anatomical, optical, biochemical and electrophysiological techniques. The eye is basically very similar to those of other higher Diptera such as Musca and Calliphora.

Molecular Ecology Notes, 2001 Genomic libraries enriched for simple sequence repeats were constructed for Glossina morsitans morsitans, G. m. submorsitans, and G. m. centralis. Sixteen microsatellite markers were isolated from the libraries and evaluated on flies from natural G.

Phospholipases of the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1978Abstract 1. 1. Phospholipases of Glossina morsitans during pupal and adult fly developmental stages were investigated. 2. 2. Only phospholipases A and B were detectable, phospholipases C and D were not detected. 3. 3. Phospholipases A and B were affected by factors such as, pH, deoxycholate and Ca 2+ in a way similar to ...

Nature, 1960
CORRELATED with the viviparous type of reproduction found in the tsetse fies, the essential features of which were worked out as early as 1895 by Bruce1, there is a great reduction in the number of ovarioles. Stuhlman2 and Roubaud3 studied the anatomy of the female reproductive organs and considered that each ovary consisted of a single ovariole, a ...

Composition of the peritrophic matrix of the tsetse fly, Glossina morsitans morsitans
Cell and Tissue Research, 1996The three-layered peritrophic matrix of Glossina morsitans morsitans is shown, by histochemistry, to be formed of a mixture of glycosaminoglycans, glycoproteins and chitin. In all three layers the glycosaminoglycans contain GlcNAc-hexuronic and Gal-GlcNAc moieties, together with chitin.

Effect of Two Chemosterilants on Glossina morsitans
Nature, 1964THE use of sterile males offers a theoretical advantage over the use of insecticides in insect control1. This advantage is greater in the control of low-density pest species such as the screw-worm2. The sterile male technique has therefore been suggested for the control of tsetse flies, and Potts3 examined the effects of γ-radiation on tsetse fly pupae.

Spectral responses of the tsetse fly, Glossina morsitans morsitans
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1983Abstract Spectral responses of male Glossina morsitans morsitans Westw, were investigated using behavioural and electrophysiological techniques. Phototactic responses to monochromatic lights of different wavelengths but equivalent intensities (measured either in energy or quantal units) were tested in an apparatus which permitted the simultaneous ...

Proventriculus-specific cDNAs characterized from the tsetse, Glossina morsitans morsitans
Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2002Peritrophic matrix (peritrophic membrane or PM) is an important structure in the gut of most insects at some stage in their development. It is composed of chitin, proteins and proteoglycans. Multiple roles for the PM ranging from partitioning of digestive enzymes and food to protection of gut epithelial cells from viral and parasitic invasion have been

Probing by Glossina morsitans morsitans and Transmission of Trypanosoma (Nannomonas) congolense
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1981Successive probings on nine mice each by 32 Glossina morsitans morsitans infected with Trypanosoma (Nannomonas) congolense resulted in 54% of the mice (156/288) becoming parasitemic. A second trial with 25 surviving infected flies resulted in transmission by probing to 37.3% (84/225) of the host mice.
