Decoding the Reproductive System of the Olive Fruit Fly, Bactrocera oleae. [PDF]

Genes (Basel), 2021
In most diploid organisms, mating is a prerequisite for reproduction and, thus, critical to the maintenance of their population and the perpetuation of the species. Besides the importance of understanding the fundamentals of reproduction, targeting the reproductive success of a pest insect is also a promising method for its control, as a possible ...
