Resistance to organophosphorus insecticides in the SKA strain of houseflies (Musca domestica)
The response of a susceptible strain and the diazinon-selected strain of houseflies, the SKA, to 20 organophosphorus insecticides was measured by topical application and injection.

Impact of Environmental Microparticles on Insect Olfaction
ABSTRACT Terrestrial insects underpin key ecosystem services, including pollination, herbivory regulation, decomposition, nutrient cycling, and disease control. These functions depend on chemical communication that guides insects to food, mates, hosts, shelters, and oviposition sites while helping them avoid threats.

Olfaction in houseflies : morphology and electrophysiology [PDF]
his thesis is aimed at the improvement of housefly pest control using attractive odours in traps and baits. To achieve this aim, a further understanding is required of how houseflies detect and discriminate odours and how their olfactory sensitivity ...

We show that single-point mutations conferring target-site resistance (kdr) to pyrethroids and DDT in aphids and houseflies, and gene amplification conferring metabolic resistance (carboxylesterase) to organophosphates and carbamates in aphids, can have ...

Bioorthogonal Tools for Ethanolamine Lipids and Protein Conjugates
An alkyne‐tagged ethanolamine analog (AlkEA) enables bioorthogonal, metabolic labeling of endogenous phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and its protein modifications. AlkEA is incorporated into PE via the Kennedy pathway, allowing CuAAC‐based visualization of PE and affinity capture of PE‐conjugated LC3, ubiquitin, and GPI‐anchored proteins.

Transposons as Tools for Future Genome Engineering in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi
Applications of transposon‐based tools for genome engineering in fungi include transposon‐mediated mutagenesis and targeted genomic integration. ABSTRACT Transposons are fundamental genetic elements that have profoundly shaped the architecture of eukaryotic genomes.

Detection and molecular characterization of multiresistant Enterobacteriaceae carried by houseflies in the city of Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso [PDF]
Background and Aim: Houseflies (Musca domestica) are synanthropic insects that are vectors of a wide range of multidrug-resistant pathogens responsible for infectious diseases.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
