Decomposition and nutrient release pattern of agro-processing by-products biodegraded by fly larvae in Acrisols
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Archives of Agronomy and Soil Science"
DOI: 10.1080/03650340.2019.1572118
Abstract: ABSTRACT Fly larvae are increasingly being promoted as animal feed and their production on agro-processing by-products generates a high amount of residues. Understanding the decomposition and nutrients release pattern in the soil of these residues… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/pdb.prot108129
Abstract: Nociception in fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) larvae is characterized by a stereotyped escape behavior. When a larva encounters a noxious (potentially harmful) stimulus, it responds by curving its body into a c-shape and rolling in… read more here.
