As you may recall, the house fly (Musca domestica) white paper was submitted to NHGRI twice before. The last version was enthusiastically supported by the working group, but did not receive approval from the Coordinating Committee. I discussed this matter with Dr. Felsenfeld who suggested that we revise the proposal where we felt it was necessary, but that we focus our efforts on a letter to yo...

The idea of compound vision sensors is to create electronic devices and methods which could exceed the capability of existing vision sensor technologies. Previous research shows that motion hyperacuity, or better motion detection capability, of common house fly (Musca domestica) allows designing of better compound vision sensors for edge detection and near instantaneous object tracking. The rea...

Development and reproductive performance of Brontocoris tabidus (Signoret) (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) fed with Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae) larvae was evaluated. Duration of the nymphal phase of this predator was 31.2 days, with a 44.1% survival rate. Preoviposition and egg incubation periods and number of eggs/egg mass were 8.14 days, 5.6 days, and 45.4, respectively. B. tabidus pre...

We present the first molecular marker linkage map for Musca domestica containing 35 microsatellite plus six visible markers. We report the development of 33 new microsatellite markers of which 19 are included in the linkage map. Two hundred and thirty-six F2 individuals were genotyped from three crosses yielding a linkage map consisting of five linkage groups that represent the five autosomes o...

The larval midgut CTLPs of the two cyclorrhaphans Parasarcophaga hertipes and Musca crassirostris were purified. They have an approximate molecular weight range of 21-25 KDa and have subunits linked with disulphide covalent bonds. Activity of both enzymes has alkaline pH optima in the pH range 8-9. The purified enzymes showed considerable stability in media of acidic pHs and at high temperature...

Definition of the disease: Trypanosoma evansi causes a disease known as Trypanosomosis1 (‘surra’). It affects a number of species of domesticated animals in Asia, Africa and Central and South America. The principal host species affected varies geographically, but buffalo, cattle, camels and horses are particularly affected, although other animals, including wildlife, are also susceptible. It is...

The residual cyclodiene insecticides aldrin (A), dieldrin (D), heptachlor (H) and isodrin (I) can be converted by sunlight and ultraviolet light to their corresponding respective photoisomers photoaldrin (PA), photodieldrin (PD), photoheptachlor (PH) and photoisodrin (PI) (1,2,3,4). PA, PD and PH appear to be more toxic than their parent compounds to adults of the housefly, Musca domestica L. a...

This Þeld survey, the second noting the occurrence and diversity of Þlth ßy pupal parasitoid fauna in Hungary, was performed on beef and dairy feedlots and swine facilities in the southern and eastern parts of the country. The Þlth ßies Musca domestica L. and Stomoxys calcitrans (L.) were the two most commonly parasitized hosts. The three species of Spalangia recovered, in decreasing order of a...
