Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 2, Page 137-146, March 2026.ABSTRACT Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is a key phytosanitary pest of citrus in South Africa. The pest damages fruit by burrowing and feeding on the pulp, thus causing yield losses and export rejections. There are several T. leucotreta management strategies, such as orchard sanitation, mating disruption, attract‐and‐kill,

Cytotoxicity and Antimicrobial Activity of GaMF1 Analogs
ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 4, 25 February 2026.GaMF1 is a reported, highly potent inhibitor of mycobacterial ATP synthase. Structural modification of this scaffold significantly changes biological activity. We present GaMF1 analogues with strong antiparasitic effects, potential antiproliferative properties, and discuss the selectivity limitations of the parent compound and its analogues.

Nature, 1929 REFERRING to an editorial entitled “A Threat to the Zululand Game Reserves” in NATURE of Nov. 24, 1928, whilst very much in sympathy with the object of this article in so far as it refers to preservation in reserves of the natural fauna of South Africa, I am led to express the opinion that certain of the statements made would be very difficult to ...

An alternative approach to detect Trypanosoma in Glossina (Diptera, Glossinidae) without dissection
Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2008 Background: Determining if a tsetse fly is infected by trypanosomes and thus potentially able to transmit trypanosome-related human and animal diseases is an extremely laborious and time-consuming task to perform, especially under field conditions.

Sodalis glossinidius prevalence and trypanosome presence in tsetse from Luambe National Park, Zambia
Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background Tsetse flies are the biological vectors of African trypanosomes, the causative agents of sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in animals. The tsetse endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius has been suggested to play a role in tsetse susceptibility

Tsetse-fly control and eradication.
Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 1998 In many instances the cheapest and quickest way of controlling trypanosomiasis is to reduce the number of vectors and the opportunities for contact between man and vector. For permanent results, moreover, eradication of the vectors is necessary, since eradication of trypanosomiasis by chemotherapeutic means has so far not proved feasible.For a variety ...
