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.

An atlas of tsetse and bovine trypanosomosis in Sudan
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 ...

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 ...

Epidemiological surveys of camel trypanosomosis in Al-jouf, Saudi Arabia based on PCR and ELISA [PDF]
Trypanosomosis due to Trypanosoma evansi (surra) is a major enzootic disease of the dromedary camel. The present study was conducted to determine the prevalence of camel trypanosomosis in the northern part of Saudi Arabia with different methods of ...

MIF-mediated hemodilution promotes pathogenic anemia in experimental African trypanosomosis
Animal African trypanosomosis is a major threat to the economic development and human health in sub-Saharan Africa. Trypanosoma congolense infections represent the major constraint in livestock production, with anemia as the major pathogenic lethal ...

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 ...

Improvement of colony management in insect mass‐rearing for sterile insect technique applications
Abstract Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) applications against major insect pests and disease vectors rely on the cost‐effective production of high‐quality sterile males. This largely depends on the optimal management of target pest colonies by maximizing the benefits provided by a genetically rich and pathogen‐free mother colony, the presence of ...
