Proteomic analysis of Glossina pallidipes salivary gland hypertrophy virus virions for immune intervention in tsetse fly colonies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Many species of tsetse flies (Diptera: Glossinidae) can be infected by a virus that causes salivary gland hypertrophy (SGH). The viruses isolated from Glossina pallidipes (GpSGHV) and Musca somestica (MdSGHV) have recently been sequenced.

Insight into the Transmission Biology and Species-Specific Functional Capabilities of Tsetse (Diptera: Glossinidae) Obligate Symbiont Wigglesworthia

open access: yesmBio, 2012
Ancient endosymbionts have been associated with extreme genome structural stability with little differentiation in gene inventory between sister species.

Repellent Properties of δ-Octalactone Against the Tsetse Fly,Glossina morsitans Morsitans [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Insect Science, 2008
Delta-octalactone, produced by several Bovidae, has been suggested as a potential repellant of tsetse fly attack. Racemic delta-octalactone was synthesized via an abbreviated route. The product was assayed against 3-day old starved teneral female tsetse flies, Glossina morsitans morsitans Wiedemann (Diptera: Glossinidae), in a choice wind tunnel and ...

Lipid metabolism dysfunction following symbiont elimination is linked to altered Kennedy pathway homeostasis

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Lipid metabolism is critical for insect reproduction, especially for species that invest heavily in the early developmental stages of their offspring. The role of symbiotic bacteria during this process is understudied but likely essential.

A pilot study to delimit tsetse target populations in Zimbabwe. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS 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.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of trypanosome prevalence in tsetse flies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: The optimisation of trypanosomosis control programs warrants a good knowledge of the main vector of animal and human trypanosomes in sub-Saharan Africa, the tsetse fly.

Développement biologique de Trypanosoma (Nannomonas) congolense IL 1180 chez Glossina morsitans morsitans Westwood 1851 (Diptera : Glossinidae)

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1998
Un suivi parasitologique de mouches ténérales de Glossina morsitans morsitans (Mall), infectées par Trypanosoma congolense IL 1180, a été réalisé à intervalles de 72 h, des jours 3 à 15 (J3-J15).

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

open access: yesInsect 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.

Nombre probable de Trypanosoma (Nannomonas) congolense transmis par Glossina morsitans Togo

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1984
A la suite d'infection de Glossina morsitans morsitans avec Trypanosoma (N.) congolense "stock" Avetonou et "clone" ILRAD 1323, il a été remarqué qu'une G. morsitans peut émettre, par salivation sur lame chaude, 1 à 251 trypanosomes métacycliques.
