a cline in frequency of autosomal males is not associated with insecticide resistance in house fly (diptera: muscidae).	geographic variation in the chromosomal location of the male sex determining factor (m) was studied in four house fly, musca domestica l., populations from the eastern united states. we found a strong clinal trend (29 degrees 41' latitude in florida to 44 degrees 2' in maine) in which the percentage of standard xy(m) males increased with increasing latitude. in florida, 100% of the males possessed the m factor on the third autosome (iii(m)). north carolina had 20% iii(m) males and 2.35% with bot ...	2005	15765679
frequencies of the pyrethroid resistance alleles of vssc1 and cyp6d1 in house flies from the eastern united states.	house flies were collected from four dairies in maine, new york, north carolina, and florida, where high levels of resistance to permethrin have been documented. regions of two genes, cyp6d1 and vssc1, having alleles that confer resistance to permethrin (and other pyrethroids) were analysed from individuals at each collection site. the combinations of resistance alleles for vssc1 and cyp6d1 were highly variable between each state. the resistance allele cyp6d1v1 was found at a high frequency (0.6 ...	2006	16640726
