The occurrence of cuticular lesions (cicatrices) of Glossina species in the field
Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1984 L'auteur met en évidence des différences dans le taux de cicatrisation et le taux d'usure des ailes qui sont confirmées par la corrélation avec l'âge ovarien utilisé comme échelle de temps.

A pilot study to delimit tsetse target populations in Zimbabwe. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017 BACKGROUND:Tsetse (Glossina sensu stricto) are cyclical vectors of human and animal trypanosomoses, that are presently targeted by the Pan African Tsetse and Trypanosomiasis Eradication Campaign (PATTEC) coordinated by the African Union.

Large-scale and significant expression from pseudogenes in Sodalis glossinidius – a facultative bacterial endosymbiont [PDF]
, 2020 The majority of bacterial genomes have high coding efficiencies, but there are some genomes of intracellular bacteria that have low gene density. The genome of the endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius contains almost 50 % pseudogenes containing mutations ...

BMC Microbiology, 2018 Background Tsetse flies are vectors of human and animal African trypanosomiasis. In spite of many decades of chemotherapy and vector control, the disease has not been eradicated. Other methods like the transformation of tsetse fly symbionts to render the

Comparative performance of traps in catching tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae) in Tanzania
Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2016 This study was conducted to determine the efficiency of different tsetse traps in 28 sites across Tanzania. The traps used were biconical, H, NGU, NZI, pyramidal, S3, mobile, and sticky panels.

The food of glossina morsitans [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Containing Papers of a Biological Character, 1914 Five hundred flies, freshly caught in the Proclaimed Area, were killed by chloroform and the gut of each was roughly dissected out, smeared on a slide, fixed by osmic vapour and alcohol, and subsequently stained by Giemsa. The flies were all caught in the bush, away from the paths, the fly-boys proceeding in single file and catching the flies with ...

BMC Microbiology, 2018 Symbiotic microbes represent a driving force of evolutionary innovation by conferring novel ecological traits to their hosts. Many insects are associated with microbial symbionts that contribute to their host’s nutrition, digestion, detoxification ...

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
