Microsatellite Markers for Genetic Population Studies in Glossina palpalis gambiensis (Diptera: Glossinidae)^a

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 1998
ABSTRACT: Little is known about intraspecific variability in tsetse flies and its consequences for vectorial capacity. Microsatellite markers have been developed for Glossina palpalis gambiensis. Three loci have been identified and showed size polymorphisms for insectarium samples. G.

A Diffusion Model for Glossina palpalis gambiensis in Burkina Faso [PDF]

, 2007
The dispersal of Glossina species is of interest to pest control personnel since these flies are the biological vectors of human and animal trypanosomes in Africa. The design of control and/or eradication programmes requires an accurate knowledge of the ecological characteristics of tsetse flies and the geographic structure of their populations.

Sodalis glossinidius (Enterobacteriaceae) and Vectorial Competence of Glossina palpalis gambiensis and Glossina morsitans morsitans for Trypanosoma congolense Savannah Type

Current Microbiology, 2005
Sodalis glossinidius is an endosymbiont of Glossina palpalis gambiensis and Glossina morsitans morsitans, the vectors of Trypanosoma congolense. The presence of the symbiont was investigated by PCR in Trypanosoma congolense savannah type-infected and noninfected midguts of both fly species, and into the probosces of flies displaying either mature or ...

Note sur quelques particularités dans l'habitat de Glossina palpalis gambiensis Vanderplank, 1949 (Diptera, Glossinidae) observées au Sénégal

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1974
Il existe des particularités dans l'habitat de Glossina palpalis gambiensis à l'extrême limite de son aire de distribution au Sénégal. La sous-espèce a pu s'adapter à certains types de végétation: végétation épineuse, buissons divers en l'absence de ...

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

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.

Glossina palpalis gambiensis selects its larviposition sites [PDF]

, 2017
Tsetse fly control is currently achieved through methods that focus on a unique behavioural target, “host seeking behaviour”. Other basic life history, behavioural or ecological traits remain largely unexplored despite their importance to tsetse biology and parasite transmission such as larviposition.

Vector Competence of Glossina palpalis gambiensis for Trypanosoma brucei s.l. and Genetic Diversity of the Symbiont Sodalis glossinidius [PDF]

Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2006
Tsetse flies transmit African trypanosomes, responsible for sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in animals. This disease affects many people with considerable impact on public health and economy in sub-Saharan Africa, whereas trypanosomes' resistance to drugs is rising. The symbiont Sodalis glossinidius is considered to play a role in the ability of

Diversity of Glossinidae (Diptera) species in The Gambia in relation to vegetation [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária
Glossina species are known to transmit African Trypanosomiasis, one of the most important infectious diseases for both livestock and humans in sub-Saharan Africa. Therefore, the aim of this study was to characterize trapped Glossina spp.

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.
