Seasonal prevalence of trypanosomosis, Glossina density and infection along the escarpment of Omo River, Loma district, southern Ethiopia

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Background: The temporal information of trypanosomosis and tsetse apparent density is very limited in the southern part of the country. So, the study was conducted to estimate the temporal, dry and wet seasons, prevalence of cattle trypanosomosis, and ...

Changing trends in diagnostics of trypanosomosis in animals

open access: yesIndian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2014
Animal trypanosomosis presents special problems with regard to diagnosis since the clinical signs are not pathognomonic and standard parasitological techniques are not sufficiently sensitive. Formol-gel and mercuric chloride tests using serum of infected

Canine trypanosomosis: a case report

open access: yesJournal of the Hellenic Veterinary Medical Society, 2021
Trypanosomosis is a haemoprotozoan infection affecting a broad range of wild and domestic animals including dogs. Infected dogs may die within 2-4 weeks in the acute and fatal form of the disease. A dog was presented with the complaint of anorexia, persistent recumbency and loss of body weight which lasted for few days.

Evaluation of two candidate molecules—TCTP and cecropin—on the establishment of Trypanosoma brucei gambiense into the gut of Glossina palpalis gambiensis

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1747-1760, October 2025.
This study investigates the potential of enhancing the resistance of Glossina palpalis gambiensis to Trypanosoma brucei gambiense to mitigate the transmission of Human African Trypanosomiasis. We successfully cloned genes encoding proteins of interest in Sodalis strains, resulting in recombinant Sodalis (recSodalis) that were micro‐injected into the L3

An atlas of tsetse and bovine trypanosomosis in Sudan

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2016
After a long period of neglect, initiatives are being implemented in Sudan to control tsetse and trypanosomosis. Their planning, execution and monitoring require reliable information on the geographic distribution of the disease and its vectors. However, geo-referenced and harmonized data at the national level are lacking, despite the fact that a ...

Potential of entomopathogenic fungi for Glossina austeni control: insights into microbiome alterations and implications on sustainable management of the pest

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1691-1712, October 2025.
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.

Spiroplasma infection in colonized Glossina fuscipes fuscipes: impact on mass rearing and the sterile insect technique

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1761-1776, October 2025.
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 ...

Glossina pallidipes Density and Trypanosome Infection Rate in Arba Minch Zuria District of Gamo Zone, Southern Ethiopia

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, 2022
Background. African trypanosomosis is a disease of both animals and humans resulting from infection with parasitaemic protozoa of the genus Trypanosoma transmitted mainly by the tsetse flies (Glossina species).

Evaluating the impact on F1 sterility of tsetse pupae Glossina morsitans morsitans irradiated following short‐term hypoxic conditioning

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1799-1819, October 2025.
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 ...
