Tsetse fly vectors of African trypanosomosis preferentially feed on certain vertebrates largely determined by olfactory cues they emit. Previously, we established that three skin-derived ketones including 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, acetophenone and geranyl acetone accounted for avoidance of zebra by tsetse flies. Here, we tested the hypothesis that these three ketones serve as biomarkers for tsetse flies to distinguish between non-preferred- and preferred-vertebrate hosts.

Advances in next-generation sequencing have allowed the use of DNA obtained from unusual sources for wildlife studies. However, these samples have been used predominantly to sequence mitochondrial DNA for species identification while population genetics analyses have been rare. Since next-generation sequencing allows indiscriminate detection of all DNA fragments in a sample, technically it should be possible to sequence whole genomes of animals from environmental samples.

Tsetse flies and trypanosomosis significantly impact bovine production and human health in sub-Saharan Africa, exacerbating underdevelopment, malnutrition, and poverty. Despite various control strategies, long-term success has been limited. This study evaluates the combined use of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) and the sterile insect technique (SIT) to combat tsetse flies.

Article Synopsis
  • Surveillance of "silent" human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT) foci in Cameroon is crucial for meeting the World Health Organization's goal of interrupting disease transmission by 2030, prompting a study on trypanosome species present in Bafia and Manoka island.
  • Using georeferenced traps, researchers captured 1683 tsetse flies and employed molecular methods to identify trypanosome species and examine blood meal sources, highlighting areas at high risk for transmission.
  • The study found a notable difference in tsetse fly density and infection rates between the two regions, with a 7.34% overall infection rate and mixed infections primarily involving Trypanozoon and T. congolense

Tsetse flies are vectors of the parasite trypanosoma that cause the neglected tropical diseases human and animal African trypanosomosis. Semiochemicals play important roles in the biology and ecology of tsetse flies. Previous reviews have focused on olfactory-based attractants of tsetse flies.
