| population structure of glossina palpalis gambiensis (diptera: glossinidae) between river basins in burkina faso: consequences for area-wide integrated pest management. | african animal trypanosomosis is a major obstacle to the development of more efficient and sustainable livestock production systems in west africa. riverine tsetse species such as glossina palpalis gambiensis vanderplank are their major vectors. a wide variety of control tactics is available to manage these vectors, but their elimination will only be sustainable if control is exercised following area-wide integrated pest management (aw-ipm) principles, i.e. the control effort is targeting an ent ... | 2010 | 20060501 |
| Contrasting population structures of two vectors of African trypanosomoses in Burkina Faso: consequences for control. | African animal trypanosomosis is a major obstacle to the development of more efficient and sustainable livestock production systems in West Africa. Riverine tsetse species such as Glossina palpalis gambiensis Vanderplank and Glossina tachinoides Westwood are the major vectors. A wide variety of control tactics is available to manage these vectors, but their removal will in most cases only be sustainable if the control effort is targeting an entire tsetse population within a circumscribed area. | 2011 | 21738812 |
| trapping tsetse flies on water. | riverine tsetse flies such as glossina palpalis gambiensis and g. tachinoides are the vectors of human and animal trypanosomoses in west africa. despite intimate links between tsetse and water, to our knowledge there has never been any attempt to design trapping devices that would catch tsetse on water. in mangrove (guinea) one challenging issue is the tide, because height above the ground for a trap is a key factor affecting tsetse catches. the trap was mounted on the remains of an old wooden d ... | 2011 | 21678789 |
