An insect of the order Diptera is more commonly called a what?
Biology of Diptera in silk and presents it to the female to stimulate copulation. Many observed behaviours remain unstudied. Around a dozen Keroplatidae species are unique among flies in displaying bioluminescence. In some species this is restricted to the larval stage but in others this feature is retained by the pupae and adults. It has been suggested that the ability to produce their own light is used by some predatory larvae as a lure for potential prey, although it also obviously makes themselves more susceptible to predation or parasitism. Biology of Diptera Diptera is an order of winged insects commonly known as flies.
Genetically modified insect used in agriculture. In July 2015, the House of Lords (U.K.) Science and Technology Committee launched an inquiry into the possible uses of GM-insects and their associated technologies. The scope of the inquiry is to include questions such as "Would farmers benefit if insects were modified in order to reduce crop pests? What are the safety and ethical concerns over the release of genetically modified insects? How should this emerging technology be regulated?" Genetically modified insect A genetically modified (GM) insect is an insect that has been genetically modified, either through mutagenesis, or more precise processes of transgenesis, or cisgenesis.
