The effect of bacterially-dense environments on the development and immune defences of the blowfly Lucilia sericata [PDF]
, 2010 Competitive interactions between insects and microbes and the associated cost of development in bacterially-dense environments are investigated using the blowfly Lucilia sericata (Meigen) (Diptera: Calliphoridae) as a model.

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 9, Page 4686-4698, September 2024.Two research models for Lucilia cuprina targets screening were established. The results contribute to the development of sustainable RNAi mediated bio‐control strategies for this agricultural pest. Abstract BACKGROUND Flystrike, primarily caused by Lucilia cuprina, is a major health and welfare issue for sheep wool industries.

Costs and benefits of multiple resistance to insecticides for mosquitoes [PDF]
, 2008 International audienceThe evolutionary dynamics of xenobiotic resistance depends on how resistance mutations influence the fitness of their bearers, both in the presence and absence of xenobiotic selection pressure. In cases of multiple resistance, these

Male crossing over and genetic sexing systems in the Australian sheep blowfly Lucilia cuprina [PDF]
Heredity, 1991 Field-female killing (FK) systems based on deleterious mutations and Y-autosome translocations are being evaluated for genetic control of the Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina. Experience during field trials has shown that mass-reared colonies of FK strains are subject to genetic deterioration, caused mainly by genetic recombination in males. A

Scavenging with invasive species
Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 562-581, April 2024.ABSTRACT Carrion acts as a hotspot of animal activity within many ecosystems globally, attracting scavengers that rely on this food source. However, many scavengers are invasive species whose impacts on scavenging food webs and ecosystem processes linked to decomposition are poorly understood. Here, we use Australia as a case study to review the extent

The emergence of resistance to the benzimidazole anthlemintics in parasitic nematodes of livestock is characterised by multiple independent hard and soft selective sweeps [PDF]
, 2015 Anthelmintic resistance is a major problem for the control of parasitic nematodes of livestock and of growing concern for human parasite control. However, there is little understanding of how resistance arises and spreads or of the “genetic signature” of
