Improvement of colony management in insect mass‐rearing for sterile insect technique applications

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1476-1494, October 2025.
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 ...

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 ...

History and genetic diversity of African sheep: Contrasting phenotypic and genomic diversity

Animal Genetics, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Domesticated sheep have adapted to contrasting and extreme environments and continue to play important roles in local community‐based economies throughout Africa. Here we review the Neolithic migrations of thin‐tailed sheep and the later introductions of fat‐tailed sheep into eastern Africa.

Prospects for controlling trypanosomosis.

The Onderstepoort journal of veterinary research, 2009
The best technical package for the future comprises trypanocidal drugs for temporary relief and the use of insecticide-treated cattle, artificial baits and aerial spraying to attack the vector, to so give more lasting security. Whether this can speed the previously slow progress will depend on overcoming past hindrances to tsetse control: sporadic ...
