Precocene-induced sterility in F1 generation of Glossina morsitans morsitans

Journal of Insect Physiology, 1982
Abstract Precocene treatment does not disrupt the events of reproduction in Glossina morsitans morsitans or induce any apparent changes in treated tsetse. However, some females of the F1 generation are either sterile or show retardations in follicle development. Sterility is not reversed spontaneously or with juvenile hormone analogues.

Tsetse flyGlossina morsitans morsitans produces ultrasound related to behavior

Experientia, 1975
The spectrum of the sounds produced by the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans morsitans extends to above 80 kHz and the energy distribution between 20 and 70 kHz is related to behavior.

Composition of the peritrophic matrix of the tsetse fly, Glossina morsitans morsitans

Cell and Tissue Research, 1996
The 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.

Spermatophore of the Tsetse, Glossina Morsitans Morsitans Westwood: An Ultrastructural Study

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 1980
Sperm are transferred from male to female tsetse, as in most insect species, within a spermatophore. The spermatophore of the tsetse species, Glossina morsitans morsitans Westwood (Diptera: Glossinidae), is highly organized, and can be visualized as a sac deposited in the uterus of the female tsetse. The wall of the spermatophore comprises two layers,

Thermal effect of blood feeding in the telmophagous fly Glossina morsitans morsitans

Journal of Thermal Biology, 2015
During feeding on warm-blooded hosts, haematophagous insects are exposed to thermal stress due to the ingestion of a meal which temperature may highly exceed their own body temperature. In order to avoid overheating and its subsequent deleterious effects, these insects respond by setting up molecular protective mechanisms such as heat shock proteins ...

Pheromone perception in the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans morsitans

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, 1985
AbstractThe perception of cuticular female sex pheromone (15, 19, 23‐trimethylheptatriacontane=‘morsilure’) in Glossina m. morsitans was studied electrophysiologically and behaviourally. Electrophysiological studies indicated no sensitivity of the ‘tibial sensilla’ or the contact chemoreceptive hairs on the legs of males to the pheromone.
