Bartonella spp. DNA Associated with Biting Flies from California [PDF]
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004 Bartonella DNA was investigated in 104 horn flies (Haematobia spp.), 60 stable flies (Stomoxys spp.), 11 deer flies (Chrysops spp.), and 11 horse flies (Tabanus spp.) collected on cattle in California. Partial sequencing indicated B.

Functional genomics of the horn fly,
BMC Genomics, 2011 Background The horn fly, Haematobia irritans (Linnaeus, 1758) (Diptera: Muscidae) is one of the most important ectoparasites of pastured cattle. Horn flies infestations reduce cattle weight gain and milk production.

Laboratory Evaluation of Novaluron as a Development Site Treatment for Controlling Larval Horn Flies, House Flies, and Stable Flies (Diptera: Muscidae) [PDF]
Journal of Medical Entomology, 2012 A granular formulation of novaluron (Novaluron 0.2G, 0.2% [AI]), a newer benzoylphenyl urea insecticide, was evaluated for its efficacy in controlling the larval stage of horn flies, Haematobia irritans (L.); house flies, Musca domestica L.; and stable flies, Stomoxys calcitrans (L.), in cow manure.

Genetic parameters of subjective and image-based horn fly abundance phenotypes
Frontiers in Animal Science, 2023 The genetic basis of horn fly abundance remains largely unknown and only few heritability estimates are available based on small scale studies. In this study, one subjective and two image-based fly abundance phenotypes were analyzed.

Comparison Of Two Methods (visual Estimates And Filming) For Counts Of Horn Flies (haematobia Irritans Irritans) (l.) (diptera: Muscidae) [PDF]
, 2015 Visual estimates are generally used for counts of horn flies, Haematobia irritans (L.) and play an important role as an instrument to quantify fly populations in scientific studies. In this study, horn fly counts were performed on 30 Nelore steers in the

Thrombin as a Potential Proxy to Select for Horn Fly Abundance in Beef Cattle
Animals, 2022 Horn flies are a major nuisance to cattle and induce significant economic losses. Fly abundance varies within and across breeds and genetic analyses have shown sufficient genetic variation to permit selection.

Sex Chromosome Evolution in Muscid Flies
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020 Sex chromosomes and sex determining genes can evolve fast, with the sex-linked chromosomes often differing between closely related species. Population genetics theory has been developed and tested to explain the rapid evolution of sex chromosomes and sex
