Lipid quantity and composition vary between three European house fly strains
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 171, Issue 4, Page 248-257, April 2023., 2023 Lipids are crucial nutrients for survival and reproduction of insects. House fly larvae, Musca domestica (Diptera: Muscidae), are valuable as insect feed, fueling interest in lipid content regulation. We investigated whether strains of three geographical origins vary in stored lipid characteristics in response to temperature.

When parasitoid males make decisions: information used when foraging for females. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Optimal foraging models predict how an organism allocates its time and energy while foraging for aggregated resources. These models have been successfully applied to organisms such as predators looking for prey, female parasitoids looking for hosts, or ...
