Side Effects of IGR Cyromazine on Nasonia vitripennis (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae), a Parasitic Wasp of House Fly Pupae

Journal of Arthropod-Borne Diseases, 2008
Background: Combination of cyromazine as an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) and Nasonia vitripennis (Hymenop¬tera: Pteromalidae) a parasitic wasp may be an effective tool for reducing the house-fly populations in poultry houses and livestock farms.

Potential benefits of male diploidy and female triploidy for parasitoid wasps used as biological control agents: A case study in Nasonia

Biological Control
Parasitoid wasps are haplodiploid insects, but polyploidy (diploid males, triploid females) occurs for many species. In biological control, polyploidy may have beneficial effects on desirable biological related traits.

Data from: Development of a Nasonia vitripennis outbred laboratory population for genetic analysis

, 2013
The parasitoid wasp genus Nasonia has rapidly become a genetic model system for developmental and evolutionary biology. The release of its genome sequence led to the development of high-resolution genomic tools, for both interspecific and intraspecific ...

Functional characterization of transcription factor motifs using cross-species comparison across large evolutionary distances.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2010
We address the problem of finding statistically significant associations between cis-regulatory motifs and functional gene sets, in order to understand the biological roles of transcription factors.

Creating insect neopolyploid lines to study animal polyploid evolution

Evolutionary Applications
Whole‐genome duplication (polyploidy) poses many complications but is an important driver for eukaryotic evolution. To experimentally study how many challenges from the cellular (including gene expression) to the life history levels are overcome in ...

Molecular analysis of circadian photosensitivity and diapause in the jewel wasp Nasonia vitripennis [PDF]

, 2018
Cycling environmental conditions that vary with latitude have led to the evolution of intricate timing mechanisms. Nasonia vitripennis, a small parasitic wasp (Hymenoptera), is known to have strong light-driven seasonal response in the form of diapause ...

Lack of parent-of-origin effects in Nasonia jewel wasp: A replication and extension study

PLoS ONE, 2021
In diploid cells, the paternal and maternal alleles are, on average, equally expressed. There are exceptions from this: a small number of genes express the maternal or paternal allele copy exclusively.
