Neoclassical development of genetic sexing strains for insect pest and disease vector control. [PDF]

Insect Sci
The sterile insect technique has been effectively used for decades, and an important component is the availability of sex separation systems, in particular genetic sexing strains. Classical approaches, such as irradiation‐induced chromosomal translocations, have yielded stable strains for species like the Mediterranean fruit fly.

Does the surrounding vegetation influence the fruit fly assemblage in guava orchards?

Bioscience Journal, 2019
This study aimed to evaluate how the surrounding vegetation affects the assemblage of fruit flies. For this, flies were collected in guava orchards with distinct types of surrounding vegetation (exotic pasture, native forest and fruit tree intercropping).

The South American fruit fly : an important pest insect with RNAi-sensitive larval stages [PDF]

, 2019
RNA interference (RNAi) technology has been used in the development of approaches for pest control. The presence of some essential genes, the so-called "core genes," in the RNAi machinery is crucial for its efficiency and robust response in gene ...
