Pyrethroid resistance in flies : development of a resistance monitoring technique and studies on the mechanism of resistance in horn flies and house flies [PDF]
, 1990 Typescript (photocopy)VitaMajor subject: EntomologyBiotic potentials were measured for susceptible and pyrethroid-resistant horn flies, Haematobia irritans (L.). Resistant horn flies were less fit than susceptible flies.

Salivary gland thrombostasin isoforms differentially regulate blood uptake of horn flies fed on New Zealand white rabbits [PDF]
, 2009 Thrombostasin (TS) is a previously characterized anticlotting protein with multiple isoforms found in the saliva of horn flies. In this report, the effect of TS isoforms on blood feeding was assessed using individual flies that carried corresponding ts ...

Digital surveillance of animals and nature recovery
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Digital surveillance technologies (DSTs) are widely applied in nature recovery for their potential to generate novel data on species and ecosystems through digital tracking, automation (e.g. from hazardous locations) and from newly recruited citizen scientists.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Understanding how cooperative interactions remain stable matters for biodiversity because many plants rely on specialist insects that can also impose reproductive costs. We studied the interaction between Sambucus sieboldiana and seed‐consuming Heterhelus beetles through detailed field observations and pollination experiments.

Effect of Horn Flies on Vanilmandelic Acid Excretion of Dairy Cattle
Journal of Dairy Science, 1976 This study measured a physiological effect of known horn fly (Haematoba irritans L.) population densities on dairy cattle. Urinary excretion of the catecholamine metabolite, 3-methoxy-4-hydroxy mandelic acid, was an indicator of physiological response to the parasites. Six lactating Holstein cows were acclimated to the test room prior to a 3-wk control

Using art history to explore society's changing connections with agriculture
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Food insecurity is a looming challenge that especially affects those least fortunate. Consumer food choices have a substantial impact on the sustainability of current food systems. Here, we use art as a lens through which to consider our contemporary and historical relationship to one of the world's most crucial crops, the potato, in the context of the
