Description: The tetse fly Glossina palpalis gambiensis is a vector of the pathogen Trypanosoma brucei gambiense. T. brucei gambiense infection causes a chronic form of Human African Trypanosomiasis (sleeping sickness) occurring in West and central Africa. Genomic data from key Glossina species will contribute to the understanding of typanosomiasis transmission and inform vector control efforts.
