TL;DR: The sequence and annotation of the 366-megabase Glossina mors Titans morsitans genome are described, providing a foundation for research into trypanosomiasis prevention and yield important insights with broad implications for multiple aspects of tsetse biology.

TL;DR: The association between DDT resistance and the presence of L1014S is consistent with a co-dominant effect, with heterozygous individuals showing an intermediate phenotype, and the distribution and prevalence of insecticide resistance and its association with target-site mutations in eastern Uganda is collected.

TL;DR: The factors that may be responsible for the reduced diversity of tsetse's gut microbiota compared to those of other insects are described and the implications of Wigglesworthia and Sodalis density variations as they relate to trypanosome transmission dynamics and vector competence variations associated with different tsete species are discussed.

TL;DR: The resulting phylogeny confirms the monophyly of the morphologically defined fusca, morsitans and palpalis subgenera and confirms the existence of cryptic species within this subspecies.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present knowledge on the population genetics of the major vector species Glossina Fuscipes fuscipes in Uganda with a focus on population structure, measures of gene flow between populations, and the occurrence of polyandry.
