Abstract Glossina austeni Newstead (Diptera: Glossinidae) is a competent vector of the trypanosomes causing human African trypanosomiasis and the African animal trypanosomosis. Management of this pest has primarily involved trapping methods, Sterile Insect Technique, and research into vector competence–symbiotic interactions.

Microsatellite markers for genetic population studies in Glossina palpalis (Diptera: Glossinidae) [PDF]
Little is known about tsetse intraspecific variability and its consequences on vectorial capacity. Since isoenzyme analyses revealed little polymorphism, microsatellite markers have been developed for Glossina palpalis gambiensis species. Three loci have been identified and showed size polymorphisms for insectarium samples.

Abstract Tsetse flies (Glossina spp.) can vector the parasites (Trypanosoma spp.) that cause the socioeconomically devastating neglected tropical diseases human and animal African trypanosomoses. In addition to this parasite, tsetse can harbor four genera of endosymbiotic bacteria, including Wigglesworthia, Sodalis, Wolbachia, and Spiroplasma, which ...

Abstract The sterile insect technique (SIT) for tsetse involves releasing sterilized males to outcompete wild males in mating, resulting in nonviable progeny. Balancing optimum sterility and male quality is crucial. While irradiation in hypoxia or anoxia is routine for tephritid flies, its effect on tsetse, especially postrelease, is not well ...

Acquisition de nouvelles données sur l'équipement sensoriel des glossines (Diptera, Glossinidae)
Une étude conduite sur trois espèces de glossines (Glossina tachinoides, G. morsitans morsitans et G. fuscipes fuscipes) au moyen du microscope électronique à balayage (MEB) a permis d'acquérir de nouvelles données sur la morphologie et la localisation ...

Lords of the flies: dipteran migrants are diverse, abundant and ecologically important
ABSTRACT Insect migrants are hugely abundant, with recent studies identifying the megadiverse order Diptera as the major component of many migratory assemblages. Despite this, their migratory behaviour has been widely overlooked in favour of more ‘charismatic’ migrant insects such as butterflies, dragonflies, and moths.

On-Station Cattle Insecticide Treatment against Tsetse Flies using a Footbath
The study of arthropod vector behavior can lead to inexpensive and innovative control techniques for farmers. For instance, treating cattle feet with an insecticide footbath eliminates Amblyomma variegatum (Acari: Ixodidae) ticks captured in the pasture,
