PROTEOMIC APPROACH TO UNDERSTANDING THE MATERNAL EFFECT IN THE FLESH FLY, SARCOPHAGA BULLATA (DIPTERA: SARCOPHAGIDAE)

Proteomic approach to understanding the maternal effect in the flesh fly, Sarcophaga bullata (Diptera: Sarcophagidae)

Progeny of the flesh fly Sarcophaga bullata exposed to short day length show a maternal effect that prevents the expression of pupal diapause.Although ecological aspects of this effect are well studied, not enough is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying this maternal effect.In this study, two-dimensional electrophoresis was performed to
