Research Project:
IDENTIFICATION RESOURCE FOR THE FRUIT FLY SPECIES OF ANASTREPHA
Location: Systematic Entomology
Project Number: 1275-22000-233-01
Project Type:
Reimbursable
Start Date: Apr 18, 2008
End Date: Sep 21, 2011
Objective:
To develop on-line identification tools for fruit fly species groups that are commonly intercepted at U.S. ports-of-entry.
Approach:
The expert systems will be developed using a program called Lucid. The process involves recording diagnostic characters in a character matrix, capturing images of the characters using an automontage microscope system, adding the characters and images to the builder portion of Lucid, and adding the characters and images to the builder portion of Lucid, and developing HTML pages for each species and for the introductory portions of the web page. The product will be available on line through the SEL web page and will be placed on a CD and distributed to clients.
