130 Genetic Analysis of Count-Based Horn Fly Abundance Phenotypes in Beef Cattle [PDF]
Horn flies are a major irritant to livestock. In cattle, horn flies can cause increased heart and respiratory rates, decreased feed efficiency, decreased weaning weights, and reduced milk production, resulting in substantial economic losses.

PSIX-16 Association between Thrombin and horn fly abundance in beef cattle [PDF]
It has been reported that differences in horn fly tolerance in beef cattle could be associated with variation in blood enzymes. Thrombin (TH), a major enzyme for hemostasis that plays an important role in the activation of several pro-coagulation ...

Hematobin is a novel immunomodulatory protein from the saliva of the horn fly Haematobia irritans that inhibits the inflammatory response in murine macrophages. [PDF]
BackgroundThe horn fly Haematobia irritans is a blood-sucking ectoparasite responsible for substantial economic loss of livestock. Like other hematophagous arthropods species, the successful blood-feeding of H.

Study of horn flies as vectors of bovine leukemia virus [PDF]
Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the agent responsible for enzootic bovine leukosis, the most common neoplastic disease in cattle. The horn fly, a major hematophagous pest of cattle, is able to transmit different diseases in cattle.
