A genomics-informed, SNP association study reveals FBLN1 and FABP4 as contributing to resistance to fleece rot in Australian Merino sheep

BMC Veterinary Research, 2010
Background Fleece rot (FR) and body-strike of Merino sheep by the sheep blowfly Lucilia cuprina are major problems for the Australian wool industry, causing significant losses as a result of increased management costs coupled with reduced wool ...

The structure of feeding behavior in a phytophagous insect (Hylobius abietis) [PDF]

, 2015
Analysis of the feeding behavior of animals using such a high temporal resolution that meals can be defined may improve our understanding of the mechanisms regulating feeding. Meals can be distinguished in an ethologically meaningful manner by using the ‘

Recent African derivation of Chrysomya putoria from C. chloropyga and mitochondrial DNA paraphyly of cytochrome oxidase subunit one in blowflies of forensic importance [PDF]

, 2004
Chrysomya chloropyga (Wiedemann) and C. putoria (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) are closely related Afrotropical blowflies that breed in carrion and latrines, reaching high density in association with humans and spreading to other continents.

Dieldrin resistance in Lucilia cuprina (the Australian sheep blowfly): chance, selection and response [PDF]

Heredity, 2000
Discrete-generation population cages of Lucilia cuprina were initiated with dieldrin-resistant allele (Rdl ) frequencies of 1 or 5% and maintained for 17 generations on media with concentrations of dieldrin in the range 0-0.006% (w/v). The probability of the initial establishment of the Rdl allele in a population was consistently greater at the 5 ...

DIFFERENCE EQUATION FOR AUSTRALIAN SHEEP BLOWFLIES GROWTH

BAREKENG: Jurnal Ilmu Matematika dan Terapan
The population of Australian sheep blowflies, Lucilia cuprina, in Australia is of concern to many researchers because it causes several problems. These problems occur in the sheep industry where there is a term "flystrike" in the industry. Flystrike is a fly attack on sheep that causes myiasis on the sheep's skin, affecting the quality and quantity of ...
