2021 journal article

Genome and transcriptome sequencing of the green bottle fly, Lucilia sericata, reveals underlying factors of sheep flystrike and maggot debridement therapy

Genomics, 113(6), 3978–3988.

By: R. Davis n, E. Belikoff n, A. Dickey n, E. Scholl n, J. Benoit* & M. Scott n 

author keywords: Lucilia sericata; Maggot debridement therapy; Whole genome; Salivary gland; Malpighian tubule; Heat shock
MeSH headings : Animals; Calliphoridae; Debridement; Diptera / genetics; Humans; Larva / genetics; Larva / metabolism; Sheep / genetics; Transcriptome
topics (OpenAlex): Forensic Entomology and Diptera Studies; Insect behavior and control techniques; Insect and Pesticide Research
TL;DR: The assembly of a 565.3 Mb genome from long read PacBio DNA sequencing of genomic DNA is reported, which will underpin future genetic studies and in development of engineered strains for genetic control of L. sericata and for biotechnology-enhanced maggot therapy. (via Semantic Scholar)
