Comparative gene expression of Wigglesworthia inhabiting non-infected and Trypanosoma brucei gambiense-infected Glossina palpalis gambiensis flies

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Tsetse flies (Glossina sp.) that transmit trypanosomes causing human (and animal) African trypanosomiasis (HAT and AAT, respectively) harbor symbiotic microorganisms, including the obligate primary symbiont Wigglesworthia glossinidia.

Identification of New Anti‐Trypanosoma brucei Leads: An Integrated CRK12‐Guided Virtual Screen With Experimental Validation

Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 108, Issue 3, September 2026.
An integrated computational‐experimental workflow enabled CRK12‐guided hit discovery against Trypanosoma brucei under limited structural and ligand data. The workflow of virtual screening and anti‐T. brucei bioassays identified 4 hit compounds, including three low‐micromolar leads (IC50 = 1.47, 0.81, and 1.33 μM). ABSTRACT Human African trypanosomiasis

Bovines, buffers and barriers: A social scientific perspective on rewilding in the Kavango‐Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
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 ...

Tsetse Fly Detection and Sex Classification Model Enrichment Employing YOLOv8 and YOLO11 Architecture

Applied AI Letters
The sterile insect technique (SIT) represents a highly effective and promising method for combating tsetse fly‐related infections, which involves the release of sterilized male tsetse flies in the assigned zones.

Olfactory Sensitivity in Tsetse Flies: a Daily Rhythm [PDF]

Chemical Senses, 1998
The diurnal tsetse Glossina morsitans morsitans bites especially in early morning and late afternoon; around midday feeding is at a low. In laboratory apparatus that measures the amount of locomotion under constant conditions over the photophase, the flies display a similar patterning of activity levels. The profile of daily rhythms for G.

A High‐Resolution Method Using Individual Females to Assess the Competitiveness of Sterile Drosophila suzukii Males Under Semi‐Controlled Conditions

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 9, Page 1011-1021, September 2026.
A high‐resolution, novel method to assess the sexual competitiveness of sterile mass‐reared Drosophila suzukii males is calibrated and illustrated using different laboratory and wild type strains. Isolation of individual females after semi‐controlled cage competition tests and subsequent observation of their progeny showed that sterile males from two ...

Restricted insecticide application: a last mile control option for elimination of acute sleeping sickness and progressive control of African animal trypanosomiasis in South-Eastern Uganda

BMC Veterinary Research
Background Animal African trypanosomiasis (AAT) poses a significant impediment to livestock production and economic progress in sub-Saharan Africa. To reduce the burden of AAT in Uganda and contribute to the AAT progressive control pathway, there is a ...

The role of the choriothete in tsetse flies

Parasitology, 1972
The anatomy of the choriothete and its relation to certain features of the tsetse uterus, such as the previously unnoticed radial, uterine ridges, are described. The results of this study suggest that the choriothete is an organ for support of the developing embryo or larva and this role is taken over by the uterine ridges when the larva reaches a ...

DNA barcoding and geometric morphometry of tabanid flies (Diptera: Tabanidae) in Thailand and a new record of a Thai horse fly

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 498-511, September 2026.
Tabanus tenens identified in this study is a newly recorded species in Thailand. DNA barcoding using the cox1 gene identified tabanid species in the present study. WGM data from different sites served as a reference for species identification. Abstract Tabanid flies are gaining high medical and veterinary importance due to their role as a vector of ...
