When crossing two heterozygous long-winged fruit flies (Ll x Ll), the expected genotype ratio is 1 LL : 2 Ll : 1 ll. The phenotype ratio, considering that long wings (L) are dominant over short wings (l), would be 3 long wings : 1 short wing. Therefore, the expected ratios are 1 homozygous dominant, 2 heterozygous, and 1 homozygous recessive for genotypes, and 3 long-winged to 1 short-winged for phenotypes.
Can Horsefly bites affect lymph nodes?
Yes, apparently they can. I have swollen lymph nodes in my neck near some horsefly bites. I went to my school's clinic and the doctor told me that the swelling was my immune system reacting to the poisons in horselfy bites. Hope shes right and that it isn't something worse! Good luck. :)

The answer you seek is a bug called the Cicadas. I'm 36 years old and can remember clearly that my grandmother told me they were called July Fly's.

Yes, black flies can harm clematis even though the plant in question tends to be disease- and pest-resistant if heat, light, moisture and nutrient requirements are respected. The insects in question may be either aphids or fungus gnats. Many fungus gnats tend to affect root health whereas numerous aphids compromise foliage by piercing leaf, stalk and stem tissue, by removing nutrient-rich xylem and sugar-rich phloem from plant interiors, and by vectoring diseases and pathogens.

Are there any dangers of spraying rubbing alcohol to kill fruit flies?
If you have pets or children it might. Fruit flies of course come when you bring in sweet fruits such as watermelon, melons and especially bananas. I usually wash all fruit right away to get any juice off them and if possible (other than bananas) I put the fruit in the fridge. Also be sure your in-home garbage pail is cleaned out after eating fruit. Clean all counters if you have cut fruit and you can use a mixture of bleach and water to do this (being sure to rinse well.) Once your fruit is gone so are the fruit flies. Also check the floor for sticky spots that may have dribbled on the floor and wipe up with hot water and a paper towel. You should avoid any type of ignition source is you are spraying alcohol around. It is extremely flammable. spray soapy water first. It kills them just as good and wont be flammable.
