Insect Science, EarlyView.Abstract The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an environmentally friendly, sustainable pest control approach, which uses large‐scale releases of sterile insects to suppress or eradicate target populations through infertile matings. The efficiency of SIT is enhanced by male‐only releases requiring genetic sexing strains (GSSs) that are classically ...

Efeito de Iscas Tóxicas sobre Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae)
BioAssay, 2015 Uma alternativa para a supressão populacional de Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) é o emprego de iscas tóxicas. Nesse estudo, foi avaliado em laboratório o efeito de ingestão de formulações de iscas tóxicas sobre adultos de A. fraterculus bem como o efeito da precipitação pluvial sobre a eficiência das iscas.

Neoclassical development of genetic sexing strains for insect pest and disease vector control
Insect Science, EarlyView.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.

Insect Science, EarlyView.Abstract The sterile insect technique (SIT) plays an important role in environmentally sustainable pest management. Its effectiveness hinges on specialized genetic tools called genetic sexing strains (GSSs), which enable the production and release of sterile male insects while excluding females.

Florida Entomologist, 2007 Abstract Despite the interest in applying environmentally friendly control methods such as sterile insect technique (SIT) against Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae), information about its biology, taxonomy, and behavior is still insufficient. To increase this information, the present study aims to evaluate the performance of wild
