Functional validation of a white pupae minimal gene construct in Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Insect Science, EarlyView.
An intronless version of the white pupae (wp) gene was engineered to restore the wild type brown puparium color in white pupae phenotype mutants of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Functionality of the minimal gene version (mini‐wp) was verified in vivo, as one copy of mini‐wp successfully restored the wild type phenotype in homozygous ...

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.

Preservation technique to identify Bactrocera dorsalis complex (Diptera: Tephritidae) based on image analysis

Jurnal Entomologi Indonesia, 2022
Fruit flies (Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel)) are insect pests of many fruits and vegetables. Yield losses due to this pest can reach 100%, and many may be unaware that fruit flies are the trigger for several disease attacks on crops such as fungi and ...

Optimization and Evaluation of the bestRAD Sequencing Approach: Towards Ascertainment of the Invasion Routes of the Oriental Fruit Fly, Bactrocera dorsalis

Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The bestRAD technique is a reduced genome representation approach with high‐capacity sample multiplexing and physical isolation of biotin‐labelled target DNA fragments using streptavidin beads, which should reduce total cost and genotyping errors. While we here formalise the relevance of this approach within the HTS landscape, our foremost aim

Glomerular Organization in the Antennal Lobe of the Oriental Fruit Fly Bactrocera dorsalis

Frontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2018
The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis is one of the most destructive pests of horticultural crops in tropical and subtropical Asia. The insect relies heavily on its olfactory system to select suitable hosts for development and reproduction. To understand the neural basis of its odor-driven behaviors, it is fundamental to characterize the anatomy ...

The Effects of a Cold Disinfestation on Bactrocera dorsalis Survival and Navel Orange Quality [PDF]

Insects, 2019
Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck is an important economic product in South China, but the presence of quarantine pests in this product proposes the potential threat to international trade security. To find a proper phytosanitary cold treatment for Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae), commonly called oriental fruit fly, one of the most ...

An Antennae-Specific Odorant-Binding Protein Is Involved in Bactrocera dorsalis Olfaction [PDF]

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Insect antennae are important olfactory organs that house high concentrations of odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) in the sensillum lymph. Previous studies in other insects have shown that OBPs play important roles in transporting odorants and enhancing the sensitivity of the olfactory system.

Preimaginal development of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) in brackish water gives rise to adult mosquitoes with thicker cuticles and greater insecticide resistance

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
The principal arboviral vector Aedes aegypti can develop in coastal brackish water field habitats (0.5–15 g/L salt) with larvae possessing thicker cuticles and greater resistance to the larvicide Temephos. Females emerging from brackish water‐developing preimaginal stages are now shown to have thicker and remodelled leg and abdominal cuticles and ...
