Identifying flies used for maggot debridement therapy [PDF]
To the Editor: The use of maggots to clean necrotic wounds, known as maggot debridement therapy (MDT), has long been known to the scientific world. Its use has been recorded since the 1500s when soldiers’ wounds were often infested with maggots. Napoleon’

Recent Developments in Sustainable Solubilization
We highlight several recent developments in sustainable solubilization. Particular attention is given to the use of bio‐based solvents derived from renewable resources, the strategic use of water as a solvent, and alternative, sustainable solubilizers such as hydrotropes.

A cDNA subtraction approach to isolate male-specific genes from Ceratitis capitata : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University [PDF]
The Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceraritis capitata (medfly), is a significant world wide agricultural pest. Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is a biological method that has been used to control medfly successfully in several parts of the world for around two ...

Fitness costs of key point mutations that underlie acaricide target-site resistance in the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae [PDF]
The frequency of insecticide/acaricide target-site resistance is increasing in arthropod pest populations and is typically underpinned by single point mutations that affect the binding strength between the insecticide/acaricide and its target-site ...

The transformer gene controls sexual development in Drosophila suzukii
The transformer gene plays a key role in the genetic pathway for sexual development in Drosophila suzukii Abstract The genetic network of sex determination in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster was investigated in great detail. Such knowledge not only advances our understanding of the evolution and regulation of sexual dimorphism in insects ...

Selection, counterselection, and conditional gene expression for genetic biocontrol of insects
Selection, counterselection, and conditional expression can be used for sex separation. Selection (S) and counterselection (CS) genes are linked to the sex chromosomes (e.g., the X and Y chromosomes) to confer sex‐specific selection or counterselection based on the presence or absence of the S or CS genes.
