Complete mitochondrial genome of the Andean morphotype of Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
The South America fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus s.l. is an important pest of fruits in Latin America and it is really a complex with at least eight cryptic species. In this work, we report the complete mitochondrial genome for the Andean morphotype of

Chromosome-scale genome assembly of the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus sp.1. [PDF]

Insect Sci
Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 is a major fruit fly pest in Argentina, currently controlled through chemical treatments and traps. This study aims to enhance the genomic understanding of this species to support the development of sterile insect technique as well as the use of innovative technologies.

Behavioural and Electrophysiological Response of Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) to a γ-Lactone Synthetic Semiochemical. [PDF]

Insects, 2023
Attractants are a powerful tool for pest management. The lack of specific attractants for the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus, a complex of cryptic species of great economic importance in South America, makes it difficult to monitor the pest in the field.

LEKKING BEHAVIOR OF ANASTREPHA FRATERCULUS (DIPTERA: TEPHRITIDAE)

Florida Entomologist, 2007
Abstract Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) displays a lek mating system. Males form groups in which they simultaneously display signals (acoustical, visual, or chemical) to attract females with the purpose of mating. Females visit the lek and choose among signaling and courting males to mate. Scarce information is available in A.
