... identifies distinct differences in the Hsp response to desiccation and rehydration in the flesh fly Sarcophaga crassipalpis , as well as differences in the desiccation responses of diapausing and nondiapausing pupae. In nondiapausing pupae, the expression of two inducible Hsps (Hsp23 and Hsp70...

...Jay A. Yoder; David L. Denlinger ABSTRACT Puparia from diapausing pupae of the flesh fly Sarcophaga crassipalpis are lined with twice as much hydrocarbon as puparia from nondiapausing pupae (J. A. Yoder, D. L. Denlinger, M, W. Dennis and P. E. Kolattukudy, unpublished observations). The additional...

...Jay A. Yoder; David L. Denlinger ABSTRACT We report the water balance characteristics for diapausing and nondiapausing pupae of the flesh fly Sarcophaga crassipalpis . The challenge of maintaining water balance is particularly acute for pupae that spend 9–10 months in diapause, without access...
