(n.) Any species of fly of the genus Musca that deposits its eggs or young larvae (called flyblows and maggots) upon meat or other animal products.
Example Sentences:
(1) Neuropeptides identified with a radioimmunoassay specific for the C-terminus of Met5-enkephalin-Arg6-Phe7 (YGGFMRF) have been extracted from nervous tissues of the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria and also from whole flies.
(2) Immunocytochemistry indicated that GAL-LI was present in the nervous system of the blowfly.
(3) Functions for the various cellular components of the blowfly chemoreceptor sensillum are offered.
(4) Spectral and polarization sensitivities of blowfly R1-6 photoreceptor cells were measured by intracellular recordings in cells which differed in visual pigment content.
(5) In the blowfly the cell bodies of these neurons are located at the anterior base of the medulla.
(6) Also acetylcolletotrichin had no detectable effect on the oxidative activity of blowfly flight-muscle mitochondria and was not very effective with heart mitochondria.
(7) The presence of glycosphingolipids in the pupae of the blowfly, Calliphora vicina, was established.
(8) These results indicate that in a cell-free system from blowfly salivary glands, 5-methyltryptamine, through a GTP-dependent mechanism, directly activates a phospholipase C which mediates phosphoinositide hydrolysis.
(9) When captive blowflies were exposed first to dog faeces containing proglottids of T. hydatigena and then to cooked meat, 100% of pigs fed on this meat became infected.
(10) The antisera against DA and TH specifically labeled the same neurons in the blowflies.
(11) In blowflies it was detected mainly in eggs and pupae.
(12) A macromolecule with high affinity for the ecdysteroid analogue ponasterone A was isolated from nuclei of larvae of the blowfly Calliphora vicina.
(13) The structure of mechanoreceptors at the base of labellar taste hairs of the blowfly Phaenicia serricata were examined in stimulated and unstimulated conditions (i.e.
(14) Bait trapping at upland sites in England and Wales, mainly at 400-700 m altitude, showed that Calliphora vomitoria L. usually outnumbered all other blowflies.
(15) RAST inhibition demonstrated immunologic cross-reactivity between the life stages of T. molitor and also between T. molitor and A. diaperinus, as well as slight cross-reactivity with blowfly.
(16) Arylphorin was purified from larvae of the blowfly Calliphora vicina and studied in its oligomeric form and after dissociation at pH 9.6 into native subunits.
(17) Freezing was lethal in the eggs, larvae, pupae and adults of the blowflies Calliphora vicina R-D. and Calliphora vomitoria (L.), but varying degrees of supercooling were found.
(18) Starting from poly(A)-containing RNA prepared from the fat body of larvae of the blowfly Calliphora vicina, we have purified an mRNA coding for the protein calliphorin, which is a major blowfly protein accounting for approximately 9% of the total poly(A)-containing mRNA activity in the fat body of 5-days-old larvae, as demonstrated by translation in vitro.
(19) In particular the contrast of the relative importance of each mechanism in each of the major ectoparasitic pests of economic importance (sheep blowflies, mosquitoes and ticks) is discussed.
(20) It was concluded that if organophosphate resistant blowfly were present, the length of protection might be dosage related and that blowfly strike in sheep was almost equally controlled by Cyromazine and Propetamphos.
Flyblown
Definition:
(a.) Tainted or contaminated with flyblows; damaged; foul.
Example Sentences:
(1) Freelance musicians at the lowest end of the corrido hierarchy, they wait on street corners or stroll through the flyblown cantinas, where for a pound a shot, they can offer you three minutes of glory.
(2) Evidence that badgers were the crucial vector was "somewhat flyblown" and it feared farmers, roused by sensational press reports, would commence a mass — and illegal — slaughter.
(3) But it can also be flyblown, like Nigel Farage’s sub-teddy boy Eng-nat kit.
