Representative spectra of whole insect extraction of male and female <i>Glossina</i> spp.

Abstract

<p>Mass spectra peak pattern of whole insect extractions of male and female <i>Glossina (G.)</i> spp. The x-axis <i>m/z</i> value stands for mass to charge ratio and the relative intensity of the ions (a.u., arbitrary units) is shown on the y-axis. A) <i>G. morsitans morsitans</i> female, B) <i>G. morsitans morsitans</i> male, C) <i>G. austeni</i> female, D) <i>G. austeni</i> male, E) <i>G. pallidipes</i> female F) <i>G. pallidipes</i> male, G) <i>G. palpalis gambiensis</i> female, H) <i>G. palpalis gambiensis</i> male, I) <i>G. brevipalpis</i> female, and J) <i>G. brevipalpis</i> male.</p
