Effect of oviposition by Bactrocera dorsalis on the antioxidant activity of orange juice [PDF]
Abstract Among fruits and fruit products, oranges and orange juice are the most widely consumed worldwide. However, the effects of pest infestation of oranges on the quality of orange juice are not yet known. To evaluate the effect of the oriental fruit fly Bactrocera dorsalis on the antioxidant activity of orange juice, we measured changes in the ...

Molecular Cloning and Expression Profiling of CncC in Bactrocera dorsalis Hendel. [PDF]
The cap ānā collar isoform C (CncC) transcription factor is thought to be a regulator associated with antioxidant and detoxification genes that can enhance pest resistance by regulating the expression of detoxification enzyme genes. However, this transcription factor has not been well studied in the important agricultural pest Bactrocera dorsalis.
