Molecular characterization of transformer, transformer‐2, and doublesex genes in the carambola fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae, revealing potential for genetic pest management

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 566-585, April 2026.
Abstract Globalization and climate change may be driving the spread of the quarantine fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae, highlighting the need for ecofriendly control methods like the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), which relies on releasing sterile males to reduce wild populations.

CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated mutagenesis of the white‐eye gene in the tephritid pest Bactrocera zonata

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 476-490, April 2026.
Abstract Bactrocera zonata is a highly invasive agricultural pest that causes extensive damage to fruit crops. The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), a species‐specific and environmentally friendly pest control method, significantly benefits from the availability of Genetic Sexing Strains (GSSs) that enable efficient mass production of males for sterile ...

Chromosome‐scale genome assembly of the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus sp.1

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 640-664, April 2026.
Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 is a major fruit fly pest in Argentina, currently controlled through chemical treatments and traps. This study aims to enhance the genomic understanding of this species to support the development of sterile insect technique as well as the use of innovative technologies.

Selection, counterselection, and conditional gene expression for genetic biocontrol of insects

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 724-743, April 2026.
Selection, counterselection, and conditional expression can be used for sex separation. Selection (S) and counterselection (CS) genes are linked to the sex chromosomes (e.g., the X and Y chromosomes) to confer sex‐specific selection or counterselection based on the presence or absence of the S or CS genes.

Maslinina muha [(Bactrocera oleae) Gmelin]

Glasilo biljne zaštite, 2012
The olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae Gmel.) is a technological pest of olives. The pest is present in all areas of olive cultivation in Croatia, but its harmfulness depends on climatic condition. Olive fruit fly develops several generations per year. Monitoring of olive fruit fly is carried out by visual and olfactory attractants. Suppression of olive
