| tsetse fly host preference from sleeping sickness foci in cameroon: epidemiological implications. | to determine the tsetse fly host preferences in two sleeping sickness foci of southern cameroon, four entomological surveys (two in each focus) were carried out. for the whole study, 4929 tsetse flies were caught: 3933 (79.8%) glossina palpalis palpalis, 626 (12.7%) glossina pallicera pallicera, 276 (5.6%) glossina nigrofusca and 94 (1.9%) glossina caliginea. one hundred and thirty-eight blood meals were collected and the origin of 118 (85.5%) meals was successfully identified: 38.4% from man, 2 ... | 2008 | 17977803 |
| predicted distribution and movement of glossina palpalis palpalis (diptera: glossinidae) in the wet and dry seasons in the kogo trypanosomiasis focus (equatorial guinea). | the aim of this study was to predict the distribution and movement of populations of the tsetse fly, glossina palpalis palpalis (diptera: glossinidae), in the wet and dry seasons and to analyze the impact of the use of mono-pyramidal traps on fly populations in the kogo focus in 2004 and 2005. three glossina species are present in kogo: glossina palpalis palpalis, major hat vector in west-central africa, glossina caliginea, and glossina tabaniformis. the apparent density (ad) of g. p. palpalis c ... | 2007 | 18260511 |
| tsetse fly blood meal modification and trypanosome identification in two sleeping sickness foci in the forest of southern cameroon. | the blood meal origins of 222 tsetse flies (213 glossina palpalis palpalis, 7 glossina pallicera pallicera, one glossina nigrofusca and one glossina caliginea) caught in 2008 in two human african trypanosomiasis foci (bipindi and campo) of south cameroon were investigated. 88.7% of tsetse flies blood meals were identified using the heteroduplex method and the origin of the remaining blood meals (11.3%) was identified by sequencing the cytochrome b gene. most of the meals were from humans (45.9%) ... | 2010 | 20541513 |
| [glossina feeding habits and diversity of species of trypanosomes in an active focus of human african trypanosomiasis in gabon]. | feeding host is an important factor upon which depend the glossina infection rate and the proportion of different species of trypanosome. glossina feed both upon animals and humans. in order to identify species of trypanosomes present in the komo-mondah focus and to verify whether there is any relationship between the prevalence of sleeping sickness and the feeding habits of glossina, we have carried out an entomological survey in this focus of gabon. flies were dissected and organs were analyse ... | 2010 | 20821180 |
| bacterial diversity associated with populations of glossina spp. from cameroon and distribution within the campo sleeping sickness focus. | tsetse flies were sampled in three villages of the campo sleeping sickness focus in south cameroon. the aim of this study was to investigate the flies' gut bacterial composition using culture-dependent techniques. out of the 32 flies analyzed (27 glossina palpalis palpalis, two glossina pallicera, one glossina nigrofusca, and two glossina caliginea), 17 were shown to be inhabited by diverse bacteria belonging to the proteobacteria, the firmicutes, or the bacteroidetes phyla. phylogenetic analysi ... | 2011 | 21387098 |
