Genetic aspects of the worldwide colonization process of Ceratitis capitata [PDF]

Journal of Heredity, 1998
Multilocus enzyme electrophoresis data from 26 polymorphic loci (124 alleles) were used to analyze the genetic aspects of the worldwide colonization of Ceratitis capitata (medfly). Eighty-two samples of 17 populations were collected from six regions throughout the species range: Africa, extra-Mediterranean islands (Madeira and Gran Canaria ...

Multiple mating is not driven by size and sperm management in black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens)

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We investigated mating in black soldier fly (BSF), Hermetia illucens (Diptera: Stratiomyidae), an important source of animal feed. The number of spermatozoa stored in the spermathecae of females does not change after one, two and three matings of the male. BSF males and females mate multiple times under controlled conditions. The number of sperm in the

Sublethal effect of neem extract on mediterranean fruit fly adults

Revista Brasileira de Fruticultura, 2013
The sublethal effect of extracts of Azadirachta indica on Ceratitis capitata was evaluated. Two pairs of flies were treated in plastic tubes with cotton placed in plastic cages. An artificial diet (hydrolyzed protein + sugar) was provided ad libitum. The

Characterising Hot Spots of Mediterranean Fruit Fly Infestation in Apple Orchards: Implications for Pest Monitoring and Management

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly, Ceratitis capitata [Wiedemann]) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is a significant pest causing sizeable economic burden and fruit damage to crops worldwide, especially in the Mediterranean area. In deciduous orchards, monitoring the population of Mediterranean flies is an intensive and expensive process.

Records of frugivorous fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae; Dacini) from the Comoro archipelago [PDF]

, 2014
This paper summarizes current knowledge of the occurrence of Dacini fruit flies in the Comoro archipelago of the Indian Ocean. Ten species are confirmed as occurring in the archipelago: Bactrocera invadens Drew, Tsuruta & White, 2005, Dacus ...

Factors affecting detection and trapping efficacy of Mediterranean fruit flies

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 3548-3556, July 2025.
Trapping efficacy for medfly and other fruit flies depends on environmental factors, with ambient conditions having the strongest effect. Cold acclimation can skew population estimates, making careful data interpretation essential for accurate population assessments and early detection of invasive pests.

Age, sex, adult and larval diet shape starvation resistance in the Mediterranean fruit fly: an ecological and gerontological perspective. [PDF]

, 2019
The ability of an animal to withstand periods of food deprivation is a key driver of invasion success (biodiversity), adaptation to new conditions, and a crucial determinant of senescence in populations.

Cytogenetic characterization of a genetic sexing strain in Ceratitis capitata

Genome, 1991
A genetic sexing strain of Ceratitis capitata, carrying a null mutation for ADH activity linked to the Y chromosome, was analysed cytogenetically. In addition to an insertion of a large part of the Y chromosome into chromosome 2, this strain carries two other chromosomal rearrangements, a deletion in the second chromosome and a reciprocal ...
