Correlations between ecdysteroid titers and integument structure in nymphs of the tick, Amblyomma hebraeum Koch (Acarina : Ixodidae)

The anal groove of females in almost all species observed appears to have brighter fluorescence compared to their male counterparts (Figure 2).. The fluorescence of the female

pour-on formulations of the tested acaricides were highly effective in controlling the ticks and that these acaricides showed promise for use in an eradication

Theileria : Les résultats des essais de trans- mission ont été suivis par la prise quotidienne de la température rectale, par examen micros- copique de frottis

Des tests in vitro ont montré qu'une souche d'Amblyomma variegatum des environs de Dar-es-Salaam, en Tanzanie, est sensible à l'arsénite de soude, tandis qu'une

During the pharate period, which is extended from apolysis to ecdysis, the new cuticle is synthesized and differentiates underneath the cuticle of the preceding instar; (C)

Abstract – To test the hypothesis that exposure to queen mandibular pheromone (QMP) modulates ecdysteroid production in adult worker honey bees, ecdysteroids were measured in

This may reflect that con-specific males were a limited resource for females at the animal level, which might be related to (i) the low density of ticks of any species in the study

The field survey conducted in 30 study sites evi- denced a distribution overlap of 30km (western side) to 100km (eastern side) width, along a slanting line northwest-southeast
