current situation and perspectives.<br><br>
S Aksoy, Z Hao and P M Strickler<br>
What can we hope to gain for trypanosomiasis control from molecular
studies<br>
on tsetse biology ?<br><br>
We take this opportunity to encourage submission of additional posters
for inclusion in the symposium. The posters submitted may be published as
