Efeito de formulações de dimetoato e de iscas tóxicas para controle Anastrepha fraterculus (Wied) (Díptera: Tephritidae). [PDF]
A mosca-das-frutas sul americana Anastrepha fraterculus (Figura 1) é um dos insetos mais prejudiciais à fruticultura do Sul do Brasil. Os danos são causados tanto pela oviposição dos adultos como pelas larvas (Figura 2)

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

Positive and purifying selection influence the evolution of doublesex in the Anastrepha fraterculus species group. [PDF]
The gene doublesex (dsx) is considered to be under strong selective constraint along its evolutionary history because of its central role in somatic sex differentiation in insects. However, previous studies of dsx used global estimates of evolutionary rates to investigate its molecular evolution, which potentially miss signals of adaptive changes in ...

CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated mutagenesis of the white‐eye gene in the tephritid pest Bactrocera zonata
Abstract Bactrocera zonata is a highly invasive agricultural pest that causes extensive damage to fruit crops. The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), a species‐specific and environmentally friendly pest control method, significantly benefits from the availability of Genetic Sexing Strains (GSSs) that enable efficient mass production of males for sterile ...

Daily rhythms, such as mating times, play a key role in shaping insect behavior and are pivotal in prezygotic reproductive isolation and speciation. To investigate whether mating behavior follows a daily rhythm under natural light–dark cycles and controlled temperature conditions, we examined the mating times of two related agricultural pest species ...
