Search hours for food attractant by Anastrepha fraterculus and Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae) adults in guava orchards [PDF]
Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann, 1830) and Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann, 1824) are considered the main pests of Brazilian fruit production. Understanding the behavior of species is of great importance for the success of management strategies.

Effect of host plant chemistry on genetic differentiation and reduction of gene flow among Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) populations exploiting sympatric, synchronic hosts [PDF]
Herbivore host specialization includes changes in behaviour, driven by locally-induced adaptations to specific plants. These adaptations often result in sexual isolation that can be gauged through detection of reduced gene flow between host associated ...

Phylogenetic relationships of andean-ecuadorian populations of Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann 1830) (Diptera : Tephritidae) inferred from COI and COII gene sequences [PDF]
. Phylogenetic relationships among Andean-Ecuadorian and other Neotropical populations of Anastrepha fraterculus and related species have been studied using two regions of mtDNA : 405 base pairs within Cytochrome Oxidase I ( COI) and 224 base pairs ...

INDUCTION OF STERILITY IN ANASTREPHA FRATERCULUS (DIPTERA: TEPHRITIDAE) BY GAMMA RADIATION
Abstract In relation to the application of the sterile insect technique (SIT) for the South American fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann), we analyzed the effect on adult fertility of different doses of gamma irradiation and the age of pupae at the time of irradiation. In a first experiment, we applied doses of 50, 70, and 90 Gy to pupae at 24,

Factors affecting Anastrepha fraterculus female receptivity modulation by accessory gland products
In the context of the sterile insect technique (SIT), mass-rearing and male irradiation are imperative. Post-teneral treatments such as the addition of protein in adult's male diet and male hormonal treatment are used to improve sexual performance and to accelerate sexual maturation.
