| in vitro isolation of entomophthora muscae (entomophthorales: entomophthoraceae) from infected seed corn maggot delia platura (diptera: anthomyiidae). | | 1990 | 2319161 |
| fine structure and blood-brain barrier properties of the central nervous system of a dipteran larva. | using scanning and transmission electron microscopy, we studied basic ultrastructure, membrane specializations, and blood-brain barrier properties of the ventral ganglion and abdominal nerves of the last (third) instar larva of a dipteran fly, delia platura. both ganglion and nerves are covered with a non-cellular neural lamella. a monolayer of flattened perineurial cells lies beneath the neural lamella. perineurial cells contain stores of metabolites and nutrients and these cells extensively in ... | 1992 | 1401265 |
| fine structure of delia platura (meigen) (diptera: anthomyiidae) revealed by scanning electron microscopy. | delia platura (meigen) is a phytophagous fly that can cause significant crop losses. to obtain a better understanding of the external morphology of this species, adult d. platura is studied using scanning electron microscopy. organs or structures that are important for taxonomy, such as the compound eyes, spiracles, pulvilli, wings, and genitalia are highlighted to complement previous description based on light microscope. mesothoracic and metathoracic spiracles of d. platura that provide effici ... | 2014 | 24854679 |
| oviposition in delia platura (diptera, anthomyiidae): the role of volatile and contact cues of bean. | the choice of a suitable oviposition site by female insects is essential for survival of their progeny. both olfactory and contact cues of the oviposition site may mediate this choice. the polyphagous delia platura (diptera: anthomyiidae), a severe agricultural pest of numerous crops, lays eggs in the soil close to germinating seeds. maggots feed upon the cotyledons. only little is known about the cues guiding oviposition behavior. in this study, the effects of both olfactory and contact cues of ... | 2006 | 16718565 |
| anthranilic diamide insecticides delivered via multiple approaches to control vegetable pests: a case study in snap bean. | many vegetable insect pests are managed using neonicotinoid and pyrethroid insecticides. unfortunately, these insecticides are toxic to many bees and natural enemies and no longer control some pests that have developed resistance. anthranilic diamide insecticides provide systemic control of many herbivorous arthropod pests, but exhibit low toxicity to beneficial arthropods and mammals, and may be a promising alternative to neonicotinoids and pyrethroids. anthranilic diamides may be delivered to ... | 2016 | 27760786 |
| new insight into the delia platura meigen caused alteration in nutrient content of soybean (glycine max l. merill). | climate change has brought about an increasing level of seedcorn maggot (delia platura meigen, 1826) (diptera: anthomyiidae) damage in hungary. in order to have a more accurate understanding of the effects of these plant injuries induced by the larvae of d. platura, the nutrient content of soybean (glycine max l. merill.) was studied. our results show that the moisture, raw fat, raw fibre, and raw ash content of the batches damaged by d. platura were significantly less in comparison with that of ... | 2016 | 27630049 |
| the phylogeny and evolutionary timescale of muscoidea (diptera: brachycera: calyptratae) inferred from mitochondrial genomes. | muscoidea is a significant dipteran clade that includes house flies (family muscidae), latrine flies (f. fannidae), dung flies (f. scathophagidae) and root maggot flies (f. anthomyiidae). it is comprised of approximately 7000 described species. the monophyly of the muscoidea and the precise relationships of muscoids to the closest superfamily the oestroidea (blow flies, flesh flies etc) are both unresolved. until now mitochondrial (mt) genomes were available for only two of the four muscoid fami ... | 2015 | 26225760 |
| larval performance and adult attraction of delia platura (diptera: anthomyiidae) in a native and an introduced crop. | delia platura meigen is an important pest in crops around the world. its host range includes almost 50 species, and it can develop in soil organic matter. in ecuador, d. platura is a serious problem for the crop, lupinus mutabilis sweet (chocho), and it also attacks broccoli (brassica oleracea l.). after broccoli is harvested, crop residue is mixed with soil or collected and stored close to chocho fields. the objectives of this study were to determine the adaptive responses of larvae reared on d ... | 2017 | 28011683 |
| emergence and seasonal activity of the entomophagous rove beetle aleochara bilineata (coleoptera: staphylinidae) in canola in western canada. | aleochara bilineata gyllenhal (coleoptera: staphylinidae) is an important natural enemy of root maggots (delia spp.) (diptera: anthomyiidae), which are serious pests of brassicaceous crops in north america and europe. adults of a. bilineata feed on eggs and larvae of root maggots, and a. bilineata larvae parasitize delia spp. pupae. emergence and seasonal activity patterns of a. bilineata were investigated during 2003-2005 in canola (brassica rapa l. and brassica napus l.) in central alberta, ca ... | 2008 | 19161688 |
| relay cropping cauliflower with lettuce as a means to manage first-generation cabbage maggot (diptera: anthomyiidae) and minimize cauliflower yield loss. | first-generation cabbage maggot, delia radicum (l.) (diptera: anthomyiidae), can cause extensive damage to newly transplanted brassica crops. this study investigated the use of relay cropping, a form of intercropping that involves overlapping two crops in the same field for a short period, as a means to 1) reduce first-generation d. radicum egg numbers by disrupting female host finding and 2) minimize yield loss by reducing the time that crops overlap. because of the high incidence of two other ... | 2007 | 17598546 |
