New tsetse (Glossina fuscipes fuscipes) genomes generated from wild and laboratory‐reared specimens

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1588-1596, October 2025.
Abstract Tsetse (Glossina spp.) are vectors of African trypanosomes that cause devastating human and animal African trypanosomiases. While much of the research to better understand tsetse genetics and physiology relies on colony‐reared flies, these flies may not represent the genetic diversity found in natural wild populations due to their long‐term ...

Spatiotemporal changes in prevalence of Sodalis glossinidius, Spiroplasma spp. and trypanosome species in wild Glossina tachinoides from Sora‐Mboum animal African trypanosomiasis focus in northern Cameroon

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1713-1725, October 2025.
Abstract Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) has proven effective to reduce tsetse population density in large infected areas where animal African trypanosomosis (AAT) and human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) elimination was difficult to achieve. However, the decrease in mass production of insectary‐reared tsetse and the limited but incomplete knowledge on ...

Comparative genomic analysis of six Glossina genomes, vectors of African trypanosomes

Genome Biology, 2019
Background Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are the vectors of human and animal trypanosomiasis throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Tsetse flies are distinguished from other Diptera by unique adaptations, including lactation and the birthing of live young ...

Phenotypic divergence of Glossina morsitans (Diptera: Glossinidae) populations in Zambia: Application of landmark‐based wing geometric morphometrics to discriminate population‐level variation

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
Land‐mark based geomorphometric wing analysis of Glossina morsitans populations in Zambia shows that this tsetse exhibit significant population‐level variation in fly size and wing shape suggesting high levels of population structuring. The main drivers of this structuring could be random genetic drift and local adaptation to environmental conditions ...

Trypanosomes and gut microbiota interactions in triatomine bugs and tsetse flies: A vectorial perspective

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 253-268, September 2024.
Trypanosoma sp. presence modulates or has zero effect on gut microbiota composition. Microbiota presence modulates or has zero effect on Trypanosoma sp. growth. Vector biology of triatomine bugs and tsetse flies influences their gut microbiota composition.

The internal transcribed spacer 1 sequence polymorphism brings updates to tsetse species distribution in the northern Cameroon: Importance in planning efficient vector control

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 216-226, June 2024.
Many morphologically similar tsetse species are sympatric in many areas in Africa, particularly in northern Cameroon. The length polymorphism of ITS1 fragments assessed with simple PCR and migration of amplicon on a gel helped identifying these species accurately. Sympatric species were identified in areas where only one species was originally reported,

A peridomestic population of the tsetse fly Glossina palpalis palpalis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 (Diptera: Glossinidae) at Kontagora town, Niger state, Nigeria

, 2004
The present article considers some aspects of a peridomestic population of the tsetse fly Glossina palpalis palpalis Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830 in Kontagora, Nigeria. This situation characterizes an abnormal behaviour of the vector, and it is of significant

In vitro anti‐trypanosomal activity of synthetic nitrofurantoin‐triazole hybrids against Trypanosoma species causing human African trypanosomosis

Fundamental &Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 72-83, February 2024.
Abstract Human African trypanosomosis (HAT) which is also known as sleeping sickness is caused by Trypanosoma brucei gambiense that is endemic in western and central Africa and T. b. rhodesiense that is endemic in eastern and southern Africa. Drugs used for treatment against HAT first stage have limited effectiveness, and the second stage drugs have ...
