Relevant genetic differentiation among Brazilian populations of Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera, Tephritidae). [PDF]
Zookeys, 2015 We used a population genetic approach to detect the presence of genetic diversity among six populations of A. fraterculus across Brazil. To this aim, we used Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers, which may capture the presence of differentiative ...

Mate choice confers direct benefits to females of Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae). [PDF]
PLoS One, 2019 AbstractExposure to plant compounds and analogues of juvenile hormone (JH) increase male mating success in several species of tephritid fruit flies. Most of these species exhibit a lek mating system, characterized by active female choice. Although the pattern of enhanced male mating success is evident, few studies have investigated what benefits, if ...

Effect of α-difluormethylornithine on Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera, Tephritidae) ovary size Efeito da α-difluorometilornitina nas dimensões dos ovários em Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera, Tephritidae) [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2009 Ovarian sizes (length and width) were measured in young females of Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera, Tephritidae) subjected or not to the inhibitor α -difluormethylornithine (α -DFMO). The most effective concentration of α -DMFO

South American Fruit Fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Insecta: Diptera: Tephritidae)
EDIS, 2004 Anastrepha fraterculus was described in the genus Dacus by Wiedemann (1830), based on specimens from Brazil. This species is of great economic importance because of the wide variety of plants which it attacks and its extensive distribution.

South American Fruit Fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Insecta: Diptera: Tephritidae)
EDIS, 2012 This species is of great economic importance because of the wide variety of plants that it attacks and its extensive distribution. In most of South America, it probably is the most important species of Anastrepha. This revised 6-page fact sheet was written by H. V. Weems, Jr., and published by the UF Department of Entomology and Nematology, March 2012.

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1607-1620, October 2025.Isolation Index (ISI) estimates were obtained from mating compatibility tests between flies of the different laboratory strains from CENA/USP and wild populations (Vacaria‐WV; and Pelotas‐WP) from southern Brazil. Abstract In cases where a pest that is target of a Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) campaign is a member of a cryptic species complex, it is ...
