Inopus rubriceps
TaxID: 1572558
Basic Information
Inopus rubriceps
Pasture Soldier Fly, Soldier fly
Inopus rubriceps, known generally as the sugarcane soldier fly or Australian soldier fly, is a species of soldier fly in the family Stratiomyidae. The fly acts as a host for the parasitoid wasps Neurogalesus carinatus and Neurogalesus militis. The species causes damage to pasture, as well as oat and maize crops, however the degree of damage it causes means it is not considered a major pest. Though native to South East Queensland and northern New South Wales areas in Australia, its introduced range includes California and New Zealand. Populations tend to prefer warm, moist climates in subtropical/tropical regions, and no related species occur in its native range, suggesting a long evolutionary history for the fly in the region. The species was first recorded in New Zealand in 1944, appearing at p tiki in the Bay of Plenty in the North Island.

PRJNA668869 SRX9572340 SRP294048 insect RNA-seq of Inopus rubiceps Specimens were extracted with TRIzol reagents (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA)at the Beijing Genomic Institute (BGI, China). mRNA was selected with Dynabeads mRNA Purification Kit (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA) and sheared with RNA fragmentationreagents (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA). cDNA libraries were built with Illumina TruSeq kits and equimolarly pooled with eleven distantly related species for 150bp paired end sequencing. These pools included other flies, beetles and moths that are not part of this study. transanicBT007 {'tissue': 'whole body', 'isolate': 'transanicBT007', 'lat_lon': '31.9638 S 151.4374 E', 'altitude': '1480m', 'dev_stage': 'adult', 'collected_by': 'Bryan D.
