Abstract
A genetic sexing strain (GSS) of stable flies consisting of dieldrin-resistant males and dieldrin-susceptible females was used in this study. The GSS males were subjected to dieldrin as larvae and irradiated as adults for competitiveness tests against males that were not exposed to dieldrin or radiation. The irradiated GSS males were about equally competitive with untreated males in these tests. Tests with a mutant marker strain showed that females mate only once.
