Developing a continental atlas of the distribution and trypanosomal infection of tsetse flies (Glossina species)

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Background Tsetse flies (Genus: Glossina) are the sole cyclical vectors of African trypanosomoses. Despite their economic and public health impacts in sub-Saharan Africa, it has been decades since the latest distribution maps at the continental level ...

Have tsetse flies disappeared from Brazzaville town? [PDF]

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2009
Background: From 1980 to 1985, the zoological park of Brazzaville was the only tsetse resting site located in downtown which supplied others temporary sites.

Caught in a trap: DNA contamination in tsetse xenomonitoring can lead to over-estimates of Trypanosoma brucei infection.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases
BackgroundTsetse flies (Glossina sp.) are vectors of Trypanosoma brucei subspecies that cause human African trypanosomiasis (HAT). Capturing and screening tsetse is critical for HAT surveillance.

Patterns of microbiome composition in tsetse fly Glossina palpalis palpalis during vector control using Tiny Targets in Campo, South Cameroon

Microbiology Spectrum
Novel vector control tools against African trypanosomiases require a deep understanding of the factors driving tsetse vector fitness or population resilience in their ecosystems.
