Gender-Specific Differences in Spatial Behavior of the Flesh Fly, <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em>.
<p>Territoriality in the flesh fly, <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em> (Diptera: Sarcophagidae) was studied in the laboratory. In rectangular enclosures, male flies exhibited a lower tolerance (occupation of the same physical space) of same-sex conspecifics than did female flies. In circular arenas, …

Differential Expression of Genes During Diapause in the Flesh Fly, <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em>.
… when compared with nondiapausing pupae in <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em>. The results of a Suppression Subtractive Hybridization procedure was used to indentify genes that are differentially regulated in both diapause and nondiapausing states while suppressing genes that are common to both …

Biogenic Amine Levels Correlate with Time of Day, Age, Light Cycle, and Aggressive State in the Flesh Fly, Sarcophaga crassipalpis
… including aggression. The flesh fly, <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em>, was used to investigate ontogenetic and circadian changes in amines and aggression. Heads of male flies were analyzed for amine content using high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection …

Expression, Cloning, and Sequencing of Putative Insulin Signaling Genes Involved in Diapause in the Flesh Fly <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em>.
<p>Diapause is a programmed developmental arrest that allows insects to survive harsh environmental conditions. The diapause state has been linked to the insulin signaling pathway. Insulin signaling has been associated with many physiological processes including aging. It is a working hypothesis …

Molecular Study of Diapause via Generation of Two CDNA Libraries and Partial Cloning of the Ecdysone Receptor in <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em>.
… a study characterizing the diapause state in <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em>. Recent evidence suggests the diapause syndrome is a unique developmental state with its own set of genes expressed. Two cDNA libraries from the pupal brains of diapausing and nondiapausing <em>S. crassipalpis</em> were …

A single AKH neuropeptide activating three different fly AKH-receptors: an insecticide study via computational methods
… fly, Drosophila melanogaster, the flesh fly, Sarcophaga crassipalpis, and the oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis all have the same AKH that is present in the blowfly, Phormia terraenovae; this AKH has the code-name Phote-HrTH. Binding of the AKH to the extracellular binding site of a G …

Methods for the Analysis of Developmental Respiration Patterns.
… the problem of developmental respiration in <em>Sarcophaga crassipalpis</em> Macquart from the biological and instrumental points of view and adapts mathematical and statistical tools in order to analyze the data gathered. The biological motivation and current state of research is given as well …
