The College of Science at the University of Basrah organized a seminar entitled (Genetic diagnosis and bacterial isolation of the vector Lucilia sericata with methods of control using plant extracts)  by the graduate student Zahraa Galibe Abd Algahni. The study aims to a diagnostic study of the vector Lucilia sericata and methods to resist it biologically, and included

• The effect of some plants extracts , Vitex agnus-castus and the phloem of Quercus on some aspects of the biology of  Lucilia sericata 

• Genetically diagnosis by PCR

• The bacteriological examination of the insect

The study was recommended 

• Conducting subsequent experiments to separate the secondary compounds of the active plants and find out their effective chemical composition

• Conducting other studies to identify the most important genes used to diagnose phenotypically similar species.

• Conducting other experiments to identify different types of germs transmitted by the insec
