A metagenomic assessment of the bacteria associated with Lucilia sericata and Lucilia cuprina (Diptera: Calliphoridae)

open access: yesApplied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014
Lucilia Robineau-Desvoidy (Diptera: Calliphoridae) is a blow fly genus of forensic, medical, veterinary, and agricultural importance. This genus is also famous because of its beneficial uses in maggot debridement therapy (MDT). Although the genus is of considerable economic importance, our knowledge about microbes associated with these flies and how ...

The transformer gene controls sexual development in Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 547-565, April 2026.
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

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 724-743, April 2026.
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.

Determining Terminal Velocities of Selected Insects and Substitute Materials to Develop Future Test Procedures for Insect‐Friendly Mowing Technology

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 3, Page 310-320, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural grasslands are vital habitats for insects that provide key ecosystem services. However, conventional rotary mowers are proposed to cause significant insect mortality due to the high rotational speed of their blades and the resulting airflow.

Experimental Parasitism of Synanthropic Flies (Musca domestica, Lucilia sericata, and Sarcophaga heamorrhoidalis) by Parasitoid Wasps (Nasonia vitripennis, Spalangia nigroaenea, and Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae)

open access: yesJournal of Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, 2019
Background and purpose: One of the most popular methods to control the synanthropic flies is using parasitoid wasps. The aim of this study was to estimate the experimental parasitism rates of pupae of Musca domestica, Lucilia sericata, and Sarcophaga ...

Bulk tissue versus amino acid carbon stable isotopes to reveal the diet and basal resource use of an invasive rodent

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Stable isotope analysis (SIA) is widely used to reconstruct food webs, characterize trophic relationships, and estimate dietary composition. However, bulk tissue SIA (BSIA) can yield imprecise estimates when dietary sources are isotopically similar.
