Identification and testing of oviposition attractant chemical compounds for Musca domestica
Oviposition attractants for the house fly Musca domestica have been investigated using electrophysiological tests, behavioural assays and field tests. Volatiles were collected via head space absorption method from fermented wheat bran, fresh wheat bran, rearing substrate residue and house fly maggots. A Y-tube olfactometer assay showed that the odor of fermented wheat bran was a significant att...
متن کاملCycle-Characteristic Odour of Cow Urine Can Be Detected by the Female Face Fly (Musca autumnalis)
Due to declining dairy cow fertility rates, there is great interest in developing tools for oestrus detection. Compounds in the volatile profile of oestrous cows are suggested as oestrus-specific, but consistent results have not been presented. Certain haematophagous arthropods can discriminate stages of the mammalian reproductive cycle based on host volatiles. This study investigated whether t...
متن کاملThe colonization and life-cycles of Musca lusoria, Musca xanthomelas and Musca nevilli, vectors of Parafilaria bovicola in South Africa.
Thriving, permanent colonies of Musca xanthomelas and later of Musca nevilli were successfully established. However, because of the low reproduction potential of Musca lusoria a small colony only was kept for a limited period until life-cycle studies were completed. Larvae were reared on fresh dung from cattle fed lucerne, while in general adults were fed 0.3% citrated ox-blood, whole milk powd...
متن کاملMusca domestica L. in Malaysia
The tiny, spiny-legged rove beetle, Anotylus latiusculus (Kraatz) ernerged from house fiy puparium collected from a vegetable farm in the Carneron Highlands, Pahang. This beetle parasitoid, and microhymenepteran Spalangia are natural enemies of fiies. Spalangia spp. play important roles in regulating the fiy population in Malaysia. However, this role is doubtful for the spinylegged rove beetle ...
متن کاملEpidemiology of MdSGHV in Musca domestica
Musca domestica salivary gland hypertrophy virus (MdSGHV) is a disease that enlarges the salivary glands of Musca domestica (the common house fly), as well as causes infertility in female house flies. An infected female fly will no longer produce or lay eggs and will refuse a male’s mating attempts. Collaborating with the University of Florida’s Entomology and Nematology Department, we have hyp...
