Blood-Feeding Strategy of Haematobia irritans (Diptera: Muscidae) [PDF]
The economic impact on livestock production by Haematobia irritans (L.) is estimated to approach $1 billion per year in North America. However, there is little information regarding the blood-feeding strategy used by these insects. Information presented here shows that horn fly saliva interferes with the normal coagulation response as measured by the ...

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 ...

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.

Abstract Cattle treated with LongRange®, an injectable formulation of the parasiticide eprinomectin, fecally excrete insecticidal residues for an extended period post application. We examined the nontarget effect of these residues by comparing insect communities developing in dung of untreated cattle (week 0) with those developing in dung of cattle ...

In this study, we assessed the composition and establishment of the microbiome of insect eggs using the Southern green stinkbug Nezara viridula (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) as a study object. Our results show that the egg‐associated bacterial microbiome is species‐poor and dominated by a few symbionts, particularly the species‐specific obligate Pantoea ...
