A genetically marked maggot to better understand corpse decomposition ecology

2026-07-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Blow fly larvae are used in forensic entomology to estimate the minimum postmortem interval (PMImin) based on a prediction of insect age. However, current age-estimation methods typically rely on reference data from artificial conditions and lack validation under realistic field conditions, which is crucial for expert testimony. A technical barrier to empirical validation is the diffi...
