Use of bioluminescent Escherichia coli to determine retention during the life cycle of the housefly, Musca domestica (Diptera: Muscidae, L).
Researchers have documented that the housefly (Musca domestica) can serve as a vector for the spread of foodborne pathogens to livestock, food, and humans. Most studies have investigated Musca domestica as a vector only after the fly comes into contact or consumes the pathogen as an adult. The objective of this study was to determine whether the larvae of Musca domestica could ingest Escherichi...
متن کاملInfectivity of housefly, Musca domestica (Diptera: Muscidae) to different entomopathogenic fungi
The housefly Musca domestica is a worldwide insect pest that acts as a vector for many pathogenic diseases in both people and animals. The present study was conducted to evaluate the virulence of different local isolates of Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae and Isaria fumosorosea on M. domestica using two bioassay techniques: (1) adult immersion and (2) a bait method applied to both la...
متن کاملInvestigations on the Mitochondria of the Housefly, Musca Domestica L
1. The ATPase activity of insect mitochondria has been investigated. A comparison was made to determine the distribution and nature of such activity in other isolated fractions of the house fly, Musca domestica L. 2. The ATPase in insect mitochondria is specific in that orthophosphate can be cleaved only from ATP. The Michaelis-Menten constant K(8) = 2.78 x 10(-3)M and V(max.) = 76 micrograms P...
متن کاملCircadian rhythm gene regulation in the housefly Musca domestica.
The circadian mechanism appears remarkably conserved between Drosophila and mammals, with basic underlying negative and positive feedback loops, cycling gene products, and temporally regulated nuclear transport involving a few key proteins. One of these negative regulators is PERIOD, which in Drosophila shows very similar temporal and spatial regulation to TIMELESS. Surprisingly, we observe tha...
متن کاملAnaerobic metabolism in the housefly, Musca domestica L.
Adult and immature individuals of many insect species can survive anaerobic conditions for periods ranging from 4 hr. to 4 days, and even in a few cases for longer periods up to 56 days (see Brand, 1946, for numerous references). The present paper describes an investigation into some effects of anoxia on adult Musca domestica. A preliminary account of part of this work has been published (Heslo...
