Composition of Anastrepha species (Diptera: Tephritidae) in habitats with different levels of anthropogenic activity

open access: yesBiotemas, 2017
We collected Anastrepha species in three areas (urban, research station, agricultural) and compared communities by faunal indices (dominance, abundance, frequency, and constancy).

Synergistic attraction: Development and field evaluation of a multicomponent lure for Zeugodacus cucurbitae based on host‐plant volatiles and gut bacterium‐derived volatiles

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6919-6930, July 2026.
The newly developed ternary blend was validated in field trials and proved highly effective in attracting both male and female Zeugodacus cucurbitae. Abstract BACKGROUND Zeugodacus cucurbitae is a global quarantine pest. Management of this pest relies heavily on chemical insecticides, which impose substantial environmental burdens. Male‐specific lures [

Two remarkable new species related to Anastrepha tripunctata (Diptera: Tephritidae) with a discussion of the affinities of the cryptostrepha group. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Two new species belonging to the genus Anastrepha, A. maya sp. nov. and A. relicta sp. nov., are described. These species are noteworthy because they are closely related to A.

Finding Mr. Right: Housing Quality Affects Male Mouse Attractiveness to Females, With Implications for Conservation Captive Breeding

open access: yesZoo Biology, Volume 45, Issue 4, Page 487-498, July/August 2026.
Housing quality affects male mouse attractiveness to females ABSTRACT Females generally prefer mates with traits indicating low stress (e.g., large size; good health). In captivity, stress from suboptimal housing might therefore reduce male attractiveness.

The transformer gene controls sexual development in Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 547-565, April 2026.
The transformer gene plays a key role in the genetic pathway for sexual development in Drosophila suzukii Abstract The genetic network of sex determination in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster was investigated in great detail. Such knowledge not only advances our understanding of the evolution and regulation of sexual dimorphism in insects ...

Genetic engineering for SIT application: a fruit fly‐focused review

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 703-723, April 2026.
Abstract Sterile insect technique (SIT) has become a key component of efficient pest control. Fruit fly pests from the Drosophilidae and Tephritidae families pose a substantial and overwhelmingly increasing threat to the agricultural industry, aggravated by climate change and globalization among other contributors.

Molecular characterization of transformer, transformer‐2, and doublesex genes in the carambola fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae, revealing potential for genetic pest management

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 566-585, April 2026.
Abstract Globalization and climate change may be driving the spread of the quarantine fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae, highlighting the need for ecofriendly control methods like the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), which relies on releasing sterile males to reduce wild populations.
