The modulatory effects of biogenic amines on male mating performance in Bactrocera dorsalis. [PDF]
Front Physiol, 2022 In insects, the emergence of mating behavior requires the interplay among sex-determination hierarchy mechanisms that regulate sex-specific differentiation, perception and integration of different sensory cues, and precisely patterned behavioral outputs.

The South American fruit fly : an important pest insect with RNAi-sensitive larval stages [PDF]
, 2019 RNA interference (RNAi) technology has been used in the development of approaches for pest control. The presence of some essential genes, the so-called "core genes," in the RNAi machinery is crucial for its efficiency and robust response in gene ...

Classical Olfactory Conditioning in the Oriental Fruit Fly, Bactrocera dorsalis
PLOS ONE, 2015 The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis, is a serious pest of fruits and vegetables. Methyl eugenol (ME), a male attractant, is used to against this fly by mass trapping. Control effect may be influenced by learning, which could modify the olfactory response of the fly to this attractant.

Effects of laboratory colonization on Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera, Tephritidae) mating behaviour: 'what a difference a year makes' [PDF]
, 2015 Laboratory-reared insects are widely known to have significantly reduced genetic diversity in comparison to wild populations; however, subtle behavioural changes between laboratory-adapted and wild or ‘wildish’ (i.e., within one or very few generations ...

Discovery of Chemosensory Genes in the Oriental Fruit Fly, Bactrocera dorsalis
PLOS ONE, 2015 The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis, is a devastating fruit fly pest in tropical and sub-tropical countries. Like other insects, this fly uses its chemosensory system to efficiently interact with its environment. However, our understanding of the molecular components comprising B. dorsalis chemosensory system is limited.

Endocytic pathway mediates refractoriness of insect Bactrocera dorsalis to RNA interference [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2015 AbstractRNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful and convenient tool for sequence-specific gene silencing and it is triggered by double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). RNAi can be easily achieved in many eukaryotes by either injecting or feeding dsRNAs. This mechanism has demonstrated its potential in fundamental research on genetics, medicine and agriculture ...

Identification and Characterization of Sex-Biased MicroRNAs in Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel)
PLOS ONE, 2016 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of endogenous small non-coding RNAs that regulate various biological processes including sexual dimorphism. The oriental fruit fly Bactrocera dorsalis is one of the most destructive agricultural insect pests in many Asian countries.
