Chemosensory receptors in tsetse flies provide link between chemical and behavioural ecology

Masiga, Daniel; Obiero, George; Macharia, Rosaline; Mireji, Paul O; Christoffels, Alan (2014)

Tsetse flies survive in a variety of environments across tropical Africa, often rising to large numbers, despite their low birth rate of one offspring every seven to nine days. They use olfactory receptors to process ...
Odorant and Gustatory Receptors in the Tsetse Fly Glossina morsitans morsitans

Obiero, George FO; Mireji, Paul O; Nyanjom, Steven RG; Christoffels, Alan; Robertson, Hugh M; Masiga, Daniel K (2014)

Tsetse flies use olfactory and gustatory responses, through odorant and gustatory receptors (ORs and GRs), to interact with their environment. Glossina morsitans morsitans genome ORs and GRs were annotated using homologs ...
