Genetic control of Lucilia cuprina
The Lucilia cuprina genetic control program conducted by members of CSIRO Entomology is reviewed. A strategy for reviving interest in area-wide control of this pest is suggested through the development of mass-rearing abilities, leading to the application of SIRM to eradicate the pest from Tasmania. Genetic control methods could be integrated in the SIRM program if appropriate strains could be ...
متن کاملHistone deacetylase enzymes as drug targets for the control of the sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina
The Australian sheep blowfly, Lucilia cuprina, is an ecto-parasite that causes significant economic losses in the sheep industry. Emerging resistance to insecticides used to protect sheep from this parasite is driving the search for new drugs that act via different mechanisms. Inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs), enzymes essential for regulating eukaryotic gene transcription, are prospec...
متن کاملA case of sheep strike in a neonatal lamb caused by Lucilia cuprina.
There have been few reports of myiasis in domestic and pet animals in Nigeria although the presence of flies capable of causing the disease has been recorded in the country (LLOYD and DIPEOLU, 1974; DIPEOLU, 1975 a; 1977; IWUALA and OUALA, 1978). In the only available report on calliphorine myiasis of equids and bovines in Nigeria, MOHAMMED and HARTKE (1970) showed that Chrysomyia bezziana was ...
متن کاملDiazinon resistance, fluctuating asymmetry and fitness in the Australian sheep blowfly, lucilia cuprina.
Genetic evidence suggests that the evolution of resistance to the insecticide diazinon in Lucilia cuprina initially produced an increase in asymmetry. At that time resistant flies were presumed to be at a selective disadvantage in the absence of diazinon. Subsequent evolution in natural populations selected modifiers to ameliorate these effects. The fitness and fluctuating asymmetry levels of r...
متن کاملCuticular lipids of adults and puparia of the Australian sheep blowfly Lucilia cuprina (Wied.).
The presence of a strong contact component in the sex and ovipositing behavior of the sheep blowfly Lucilia cuprina Wied. prompted an investigation into the chemical composition of the cuticular wax of the adult male and female flies as well as that of the blowfly puparia. Thin-layer chromatography indicated that the lipids in all the waxes examined comprise hydrocarbons, nonglyceryl esters, tr...
