Abstract

Abstract: Wohlfahrtia magnifica is an obligate parasitic fly species with high pathogenicity to humans and livestock. Its larvae exhibit significant tissue invasiveness, capable of infesting hemorrhagic wounds on the body surface or entering the host through natural orifices such as the eyes, nose, and oral cavity, thereby causing severe zoonotic myiasis and resulting in substantial economic losses to the global livestock industry. This review systematically elaborates on the taxonomic status, geographical distribution, host range, and biological and ecological characteristics of W. magnifica, as well as the research status of molecular biology and genomics, and focuses on analyzing the current problems and challenges in integrated control strategies and the field of gene editing. Although significant progress has been made in fundamental research areas such as genomics in recent years, numerous research gaps remain regarding field control in livestock production, insecticide resistance monitoring, and the development of novel control technologies. Conducting in-depth studies in related fields are of great significance for improving the integrated control system of W. magnifica, reducing zoonotic risks, and ensuring the sustainable development of the livestock industry.

Key words: Wohlfahrtia magnifica, insecticide resistance, gene editing, in vitro rearing
