Expression profile of odorant receptors in brain, gut and reproductive tissues in male and female Glossina morsitans morsitans

Scientific African, 2020
Glossina morsitans morsitans are vectors of Animal African Trypanosomiasis (nagana) and Human African Trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness). Glossina uses odorant receptors (Ors) expressed within the olfactory receptor neurons to identify chemical cues ...

Expression of odorant co-receptor Orco in tissues and development stages of Glossina morsitans morsitans, Glossina fuscipies fuscipies and Glossina pallidipies

Scientific African, 2018
Tsetse flies (Glossina) depend on their olfactory system to identify host, larviposition sites and mates. Previous studies have characterized olfactory organs and evaluated the odorant receptor (OR) expression to host-derived chemicals.

Molecular identification of different trypanosome species and subspecies in tsetse flies of northern Nigeria [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Animal African Trypanosomiasis (AAT) is caused by several species of trypanosomes including Trypanosoma congolense, T. vivax, T. godfreyi, T. simiae and T. brucei. Two of the subspecies of T. brucei also cause Human African Trypanosomiasis.
