Learning Affects Host Preference in Tsetse Flies

Revue d’Elevage et de Médecine Vétérinaire des Pays Tropicaux, 2005
Tsetse flies are very efficient cyclic vectors of African trypanosomosis. Since tsetse are generally infected by the first blood meal, as in the case of sleeping sickness for example, any propensity to feed on the same host a second time will improve ...
