identification of phorid fly (megaselia scalaris.)(diptera: phoridae) in honey bee and pollen samples of taleghan, karadj apiaries
نویسندگان
چکیده
pollen, honey, larvae, pupa and adult honey bees were collected from apiaries in taleghan, karadj region to assess the fungal infections. several larvae were found in culture media of digestive system of adult bees and pollen through the experiment. the larvae then were incubated to grow up and reach to the adult stage. morphological and systematic studies on samples of larvae and adults revealed that flies are belonging to megaselia sp. (diptera: phoridae).

متن کاملCharacterization of development, behavior and neuromuscular physiology in the phorid fly, Megaselia scalaris.
The Phoridae is known as 'scuttle flies' because they walk in rapid bursts of movement with short pauses between. In this study, larval locomotive behavior and development was characterized in the phorid, Megaselia scalaris. Comparison was made with the well-characterized fruit fly model, Drosophila melanogaster. Developmentally, the rate of maturation was consistently slower for Megaselia than...

A total of 3917 honey samples and 119 'bee pollen' samples (pollen collected by honeybees) were analysed for pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs). Some 0.05 M sulphuric acid was used for extraction followed by a clean-up step by means of solid-phase extraction. Separation and detection was achieved by target analysis using an LC-MS/MS system. PAs were found in 66% of the raw honeys (bulk honey not yet...
متن کاملDevelopmental Variation of Indian Thermophilic Variety of Scuttle Fly Megaselia (Megaselia) scalaris (Loew, 1866) (Diptera: Phoridae) on Different Substrates
The scuttle flies (Diptera: Phoridae) are important in forensic dipterology, because of their necrophagous habit. They are amongst the first wave of insects visiting human corpses in mechanically barricaded environments; hence their immature stages are generally used for estimation of PMI. The effect of different substrates commonly used for developmental studies was studied to analyze the vari...
متن کاملFunction of bicoid and hunchback homologs in the basal cyclorrhaphan fly Megaselia (Phoridae).
The Drosophila gene bicoid functions at the beginning of a gene cascade that specifies anterior structures in the embryo. Its transcripts are localized at the anterior pole of the oocyte, giving rise to a Bicoid protein gradient, which regulates the spatially restricted expression of target genes along the anterior-posterior axis of the embryo in a concentration-dependent manner. The morphogen ...

Megaselia scalaris (Loew, 1866) (Diptera, phoridae) is a cosmopolitan fly species used in forensic science, and has been developed as a laboratory model species. They feed on decaying corpses as well as a wide variety of organic matter, and previous studies have even found them feeding on liquid paint or shoe polish, suggesting the possibility that they could breakdown industrial compounds. To ...
