Innate immune responses regulate trypanosome parasite infection of the tsetse fly Glossina morsitans morsitans

Summary Tsetse flies transmit the protozoan parasite African trypanosomes, the agents of human sleeping sickness in sub‐Saharan Africa. Parasite transmission in the insect is restricted by a natural resistance phenomenon (refractoriness). Understanding the mechanism of parasite resistance is importa...
