The use of RNA interference for the management of arthropod pests in livestock farms L'uso di RNA interferente per il controllo degli artropodi infestanti negli allevamenti

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 631-646, December 2023., 2023
Problems caused by arthropod pests to livestock production are increasing due to new legal restrictions on pesticide use, insurgence of resistance to insecticides in pest populations and climate change. RNA interference (RNAi) is a novel approach to pest control based on specific gene silencing in target species, characterised by a selective action ...

Developmental performance of Eristalis tenax larvae (Diptera: Syrphidae): Influence of growth media and yeast addition during captive rearing

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 339, Issue 5, Page 503-513, June 1, 2023., 2023
Enrichment of the rearing media with yeast fosters larval and overall survival of Eristalis tenax, and shortens larval development time. Mixing antelope droppings and rotting plant material keeps high larval survival and performance of the rearing medium up during developmental duration specially leading to female emergence.
