  abstract = {{T}setse flies transmit {A}frican trypanosomes, responsible for sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in animals. {T}his disease affects many people with considerable impact on public health and economy in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica, whereas trypanosomes' resistance to drugs is rising. {T}he symbiont {S}odalis glossinidius is considered to play a role in the ability of the fly to acquire trypanosomes. {D}ifferent species of {G}lossina were shown to harbor genetically distinct populations of {S}. glossinidius. {W}e therefore investigated whether vector competence for a given trypanosome species could be linked to the presence of specific genotypes of {S}. glossinidius. {G}lossina palpalis gambiensis individuals were fed on blood infected either with {T}rypanosoma brucei gambiense or {T}rypanosoma brucei brucei. {T}he genetic diversity of {S}. glossinidius strains isolated from infected and noninfected dissected flies was investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. {C}orrespondence between occurrence of these markers and parasite establishment was analyzed using multivariate analysis. {S}odalis glossinidius strains isolated from {T}. brucei gambiense-infected flies clustered differently than that isolated from {T}. brucei brucei-infected individuals. {T}he ability of {T}. brucei gambiense and {T}. brucei brucei to establish in {G}. palpalis gambiensis insect midgut is statistically linked to the presence of specific genotypes of {S}. glossinidius. {T}his could explain variations in {G}lossina vector competence in the wild. {T}hen, assessment of the prevalence of specific {S}. glossinidius genotypes could lead to novel risk management strategies.},
