    A DsRed fluorescent protein marker under polyubiquitin promoter regulation allows visual and amplified gene detection of transgenic Caribbean fruit flies in field traps

    Field population surveillance of a targeted insect pest species is critical in evaluating management programs such as the sterile insect technique. Fluorescent powder dyes currently used to distinguish release...

    Germ-line transformation of the Queensland fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni, using a piggyBac vector in the presence of endogenous piggyBac elements

    We report the heritable germ-line transformation of the Queensland fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni, using a piggyBac vector marked with either the fluorescent protein DsRed or EGFP. A transformation frequency of 5–1...

    A Genetic Approach to the Study of Juvenile Hormone Control of Vitellogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster

    Juvenile hormone (JH) is a key agent in the regulation of insect development, and thus it must effect proper gene management during ontogeny. How this occurs is as yet a mystery, but JH can alter chromosome fu...
