Multiple Trypanosoma infections are common amongst Glossina species in the new farming areas of Rufiji district, Tanzania

Parasites & Vectors, 2011
Background Tsetse flies and trypanosomiasis are among several factors that constrain livestock development in Tanzania. Over the years Rufiji District was excluded from livestock production owing to tsetse fly infestation, however, a few years ago there ...

Evidence-based advice on timing and location of tsetse control measures in Shimba Hills National reserve, Kenya.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2023
Controlling tsetse flies is critical for effective management of African trypanosomiasis in Sub-Saharan Africa. To enhance timely and targeted deployment of tsetse control strategies a better understanding of their temporal dynamics is paramount.

Laboratory colonisation and genetic bottlenecks in the tsetse fly Glossina pallidipes [PDF]

, 2014
Background The IAEA colony is the only one available for mass rearing of Glossina pallidipes, a vector of human and animal African trypanosomiasis in eastern Africa. This colony is the source for Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) programs in East Africa.

African Trypanosomes undermine humoral responses and vaccine development : link with inflammatory responses? [PDF]

, 2017
African trypanosomosis is a debilitating disease of great medical and socioeconomical importance. It is caused by strictly extracellular protozoan parasites capable of infecting all vertebrate classes including human, livestock, and game animals.

Experimental evaluation of xenodiagnosis to detect trypanosomes at low parasitaemia levels in infected hosts

Parasite, 2011
In Human African Trypanosomosis (HAT) endemic areas, there are a number of subjects that are positive to serological tests but in whom trypanosomes are difficult to detect with the available parasitological tests.

Interpreting Morphological Adaptations Associated with Viviparity in the Tsetse Fly Glossina morsitans (Westwood) by Three-Dimensional Analysis

Insects, 2020
Tsetse flies (genus Glossina), the sole vectors of African trypanosomiasis, are distinct from most other insects, due to dramatic morphological and physiological adaptations required to support their unique biology.

Molecular identification of different trypanosome species and subspecies in tsetse flies of northern Nigeria [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Animal African Trypanosomiasis (AAT) is caused by several species of trypanosomes including Trypanosoma congolense, T. vivax, T. godfreyi, T. simiae and T. brucei. Two of the subspecies of T. brucei also cause Human African Trypanosomiasis.

The developmental cell biology of Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

, 2005
Trypanosoma brucei provides an excellent system for studies of many aspects of cell biology, including cell structure and morphology, organelle positioning, cell division and protein trafficking. However, the trypanosome has a complex life cycle in which

More than meets the eye: understanding Trypanosoma brucei morphology in the tsetse

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013
T. brucei, the causative parasite for African trypanosomiasis, faces an interesting dilemma in its life cycle. It has to successfully complete its infection cycle in the tsetse vector to be able to infect other vertebrate hosts. T.
