Sex Attraction in the House Fly, Musca Domestica L.-
Attraction tests have shown that virgin female house flies attract both virgin males and females but the degree of attraction is relatively small. A tentative hypothesis of chemical sex attraction is suggested. The attraction does not appear to be due to moisture, motion, or sound effects.

متن کاملIndoxacarb resistance in the house fly, Musca domestica
Indoxacarb (DPX-MP062) is a recently introduced oxadiazine insecticide with activity against a wide range of pests, including house flies. It is metabolically decarbomethoxylated to DCJW. Selection of field collected house flies with indoxacarb produced a New York indoxacarb-resistant (NYINDR) strain with >118-fold resistance after three generations.

Research on fruit fly courtship has mostly focused on males’ behavioral repertoire whereas females have been assumed to respond by either rejecting or accepting males. In many fruit fly species including Drosophila melanogaster, however, mating typically follows an extended period of courtship, which provides ample opportunities for females to inform males about their likelihood of mating.

متن کاملThe linkage map of the house fly, Musca domestica L.
TOTAL of nine house fly mutants which occurred spontaneously or were A induced by X-ray were listed by two Russian investigators, SARKISSIAN (1941) and SEREBROVSKY (1941). These may have been the first attempts at the formal study of the genetics of Musca donestica L. Apparently these-investigators did not continue and extend this work subsequently. Recently, in connection with problems of resi...
متن کاملBacteriophage Isolated from the Common House Fly (musca Domestica)
1. Bacteriophage active against four species of bacteria was found in a salt solution extract of house flies. 2. A growth-inhibiting principle, not bacteriophage, active against four other species of bacteria was found to be present in the same extract. 3. An attempt to secure streptococcus bacteriophage by feeding to flies a streptococcus susceptible to the inhibitor but not to the bacteriopha...
