Fipronil 1% pour-on: further studies of its effects against lab-reared Glossina palpalis gambiensis. [PDF]

open access: yesParasitol Res, 2017
In order to assess the residual effects of fipronil 1% on tsetse fly survival, male Glossina palpalis gambiensis were released on non-treated and treated cattle, with 0.1 ml of fipronil/kg b.w. as a pour-on formulation. In a second trial, the female fecundity performances were evaluated by feeding teneral females on the same cattle.

Storage of male Glossina palpalis gambiensis pupae at low temperature: effect on emergence, mating and survival. [PDF]

open access: yesParasit Vectors, 2014
Procurement of sterile tsetse flies (Glossina palpalis gambiensis) from Burkina Faso for an eradication programme in Senegal that incorporates the sterile insect technique (SIT) required the development of transport and handling protocols that would allow retaining the female flies in the rearing facility and transport of the male flies as irradiated ...

The "Gredouno" Cross Target: a new tool adapted to control Glossina palpalis gambiensis in the mangrove forests of Guinea. [PDF]

open access: yesParasit Vectors
Abstract In the mangrove of Guinea, where the most active foci of Human African Trypanosomiasis in West Africa are located, vector control against tsetse flies using insecticide impregnated tiny targets was first introduced in 2012. While annual deployments of Tiny Targets have resulted in an overall 90% reduction in tsetse fly densities in ...

Decrease in survival and fecundity of Glossina palpalis gambiensis vanderplank 1949 (Diptera: Glossinidae) fed on cattle treated with single doses of ivermectin. [PDF]

open access: yesParasit Vectors, 2013
Background: Human and Animal Trypanosomes are major problems for the socio-economic growth of developing countries like Burkina Faso. Ivermectin is currently used to treat humans in mass drug administration programs in Africa, and is also commonly used ...

Les glossines (Diptera, Glossinidae) du Sénégal : écologie, répartition géographique et incidence sur les trypanosomes

open access: yesRevue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 1971
Cette note présente une synthèse des prospections faites entre 1965 et 1968 pour préciser la répartition géographique et l'écologie des glossines au Sénégal. Trois espèces de glossines sont mentionnées : Glossina morsitans submorsitans Newstead, 1910 ; G.

Explaining the host-finding behavior of blood-sucking insects : computerized simulation of the effects of habitat geometry on tsetse fly movement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background Male and female tsetse flies feed exclusively on vertebrate blood. While doing so they can transmit the diseases of sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in domestic stock.

Improving the cost-effectiveness of visual devices for the control of riverine tsetse flies, the major vectors of human African trypanosomiasis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2011
Control of the Riverine (Palpalis) group of tsetse flies is normally achieved with stationary artificial devices such as traps or insecticide-treated targets.

Two tsetse fly species, Glossina palpalis gambiensis and Glossina morsitans morsitans, carry genetically distinct populations of the secondary symbiont Sodalis glossinidius [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Genetic diversity among Sodalis glossinidius populations was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. Strains collected from Glossina palpalis gambiensis and Glossina morsitans morsitans flies group into separate clusters, being

K‐mer‐Based Motif Analysis in Insect Species across Anopheles, Drosophila, and Glossina Genera and Its Application to Species Classification

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Short k‐mer sequences from DNA are both conserved and diverged across species owing to their functional significance in speciation, which enables their use in many species classification algorithms. In the present study, we developed a methodology to analyze the DNA k‐mers of whole genome, 5′ UTR, intron, and 3′ UTR regions from 58 insect species ...
