Influence of Hydroprene on Caribbean Fruit Fly Suitability for Parasite Development

open access: yesThe Florida Entomologist, 1978
Onset of the critical period (with respect to pupation) for larvae of Anastrepha suspensa (Loew) was associated with decreased success in parasitization by the endoparasite, Biosteres (= Opius) longicaudatus Ashmead.

Effects of essential amino acids on phagostimulation and reproduction in adults of the Mediterranean fruit fly Efectos de amino ácidos esenciales en la fago‐estimulación y reproducción en adultos de la mosca de las frutas del Mediterráneo

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
The phagostimulation and reproductive effects of individual essential amino acids, without other nutrient except fructose, were investigated. Methionine, Arginine and Leucine display significantly higher phagostimulation strength than fructose. Arginine and Methionine showed a significant improvement in reproductive activity compared to other tested ...
