Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 3921-3932, July 2025.The mutation G328A (R allele) and a novel heterogeneous duplication of the acetylcholinesterase gene (RS haplotype, one of the copies bearing the mutation G328A and the other copy non‐mutated), both accounting for malathion resistance, were widely distributed in Spanish Ceratitis capitata populations when malathion was used (2003–2008). Their frequency

Toxic Effects of Lemon Peel Constituents on Ceratitis capitata
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2004 A series of experiments were conducted to evaluate the toxicity of lemon peel extracts incorporated into mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata diet. Extracts were obtained with different solvents: diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, and methanol. All three extracts were toxic to some extent; the diethyl ether extract was selected for further studies ...

Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 6, Page 957-987, July 2025.ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...

Can more K-selected species be better invaders? A case study of fruit flies in La Réunion [PDF]
, 2007 Invasive species are often said to be r-selected. However, invaders must sometimes compete with related resident species. In this case invaders should present combinations of life-history traits that give them higher competitive ability than residents ...

Efficacy of attract‐and‐kill devices for the control of Ceratitis capitata [PDF]
Pest Management Science, 2012 AbstractBACKGROUND: The control of Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann traditionally has relied on chemical control with organophosphate insecticides. The use of many of these substances has been banned by new European directives; therefore, the development of new control methods is essential to manage this pest.

Insect Science, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 1004-1018, June 2025.Abstract Knowing how environmental conditions affect performance traits in pest insects is important to improve pest management strategies. It can be informative for monitoring, but also for control programs where insects are mass‐reared, and field‐released.

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 363-380, June 2025.In insect sex determination pathways, the primary signals may vary within and between insect orders; however, the relay and terminal genes are more conserved. The upstream components of insect sex determination pathways ensure the downstream components are sex‐specifically spliced to regulate the development of male and female‐specific traits in a sex ...
