Gamma-radiation of Glossina palpalis gambiensis revisited: effect on fertility and mating competitiveness. [PDF]

Parasite, 2023
African animal trypanosomoses are vector-borne diseases that cause enormous livestock losses in sub-Saharan Africa, with drastic socio-economic impacts. Vector control in the context of an area-wide integrated pest management program with a sterile insect technique component requires the production of high-quality sterile male tsetse flies.

X-rays are as effective as gamma-rays for the sterilization of Glossina palpalis gambiensis Vanderplank, 1911 (Diptera: Glossinidae) for use in the sterile insect technique [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
An area-wide integrated pest management strategy with a sterile insect technique (SIT) component requires a radiation source for the sterilisation of male insects.

Evaluation of different blood-feeding frequencies on Glossina palpalis gambiensis performance in a mass-rearing insectary. [PDF]

Parasit Vectors, 2021
Abstract Background: In tsetse flies mass rearing insectaries, the sustainable supply of high-quality blood meals is the main challenge, especially in Africa. Because collection of high-quality and quantity of blood may be an important constraint to production, blood feeding frequency can be a lever to lessen this impact.

Caryotype de Glossina palpalis gambiensis, Vanderplank, 1949. Comparaison avec d'autres espèces du groupe palpalis et du groupe morsitans [PDF]

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1974
Glossina palpalis gambiensis possède, comme les autres espèces du sous-genre Nemorhina (Groupe palpalis), quatre autosomes (2 L1 + 2 L2) et deux chromosomes sexuels (XX ou XY).

Different laboratory populations similar bacterial profile? The case of Glossina palpalis gambiensis [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2018
Background Microbiota plays an important role in the biology, ecology and evolution of insects including tsetse flies. The bacterial profile of 3 Glossina palpalis gambiensis laboratory colonies was examined using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to ...

Towards an optimal design of target for tsetse control: comparisons of novel targets for the control of Palpalis group tsetse in West Africa. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2011
BACKGROUND: Tsetse flies of the Palpalis group are the main vectors of sleeping sickness in Africa. Insecticide impregnated targets are one of the most effective tools for control. However, the cost of these devices still represents a constraint to their

Quality Control and Mating Performance of Irradiated Glossina palpalis gambiensis Males. [PDF]

Insects, 2022
The biological quality of sterile male insects produced in a mass-rearing facility is a prerequisite for the success of the SIT, which is a component of area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM). Indeed, sterile male insects released in the field must have a good mating performance in order to compete with wild males, but they must also present the

Prospects for the development of odour baits to control the tsetse flies Glossina tachinoides and G. palpalis s.l. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2010
Field studies were done of the responses of Glossina palpalis palpalis in Côte d'Ivoire, and G. p. gambiensis and G. tachinoides in Burkina Faso, to odours from humans, cattle and pigs. Responses were measured either by baiting (1.) biconical traps or (2.
