Tsetse – A Haven for Microorganisms
Parasitology Today, 2000 Arthropods are involved in the transmission of parasitic and viral agents that cause devastating diseases in animals and plants. Effective control strategies for many of these diseases still rely on the elimination or reduction of vector insect populations. In addition to these pathogenic organisms, arthropods are rich in microbes that are symbiotic in

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The sustainability of area‐based conservation initiatives depends on their value to society. Conservation often focuses inside protected areas, but the impacts of protected areas beyond their boundaries (spillovers) are critical for their social license.

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Rewilding is often summarized with the three C's of Carnivores, Cores and Corridors. In this essay we propose a complementary perspective that focuses on the three B's of Bovines, Buffers and Barriers. This complementary perspective draws attention to rewilding as a social (rather than only ecological) challenge and is illustrated with insights from ...

Common pathways and outliers in glucose catabolism across Trypanosomatidae
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Trypanosomatid parasites, including Trypanosoma sp., Leishmania sp., Phytomonas sp., and Vickermania sp., share a common motif: a metabolism built around the glycosome, a unique peroxisome‐derived organelle housing the first steps of glycolysis. Yet, these organisms have evolved remarkably diverse strategies to catabolize glucose, excreting distinct ...

Nature, 1896 IN the excellent review of the Tsetse fly-disease, which appeared in NATURE of April 16, Mr. Walter F. H. Blandford accepts with some reserve the observation made by Dr. David Bruce, that the fly is viviparous “as the fly has not yet been bred from the puparium.”

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Schistosomiasis remains a public health concern in sub‐Saharan Africa, affecting over 250 million people. In endemic settings, schistosomiasis transmission is not always understood exclusively in biomedical terms. Community health workers (CHWs) contribute to schistosomiasis control through mass drug administration and health ...

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 2, December 2026.Garlic‐derived diallyl disulfide acts as a behavioural deterrent that suppresses insect mating and oviposition through sensory pathways. The compound is detected through gustatory mechanisms involving the transient receptor potential A1 (TrpA1) channel and neural responses.

Tropical Medicine and Health, 2020 Background Tsetse flies are the cyclical vectors of both human and animal diseases. Kenya’s commitment to eradicate tsetse and trypanosomiasis dates to the 1980s through various control approaches which were spearheaded by the African Union.

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8382-8391, September 2026.Queensland fruit fly pupae tolerate hypoxia up to 2 days without compromising quality. Prolonged hypoxia, especially at 25 °C, reduces emergence and flight ability. Storage at 18 °C is recommended. Abstract BACKGROUND The sterile insect technique is used to eradicate outbreaks of Queensland fruit fly (Q‐fly) Bactrocera tryoni (Froggatt) in fruit‐fly ...
