Understanding biological control function and trophic interaction dynamics of an artificially released predatory bug by DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
This study investigated the dietary composition of Sycanus bifidus, a generalist predator of the assassin bug that is artificially released into citrus orchards, and uncovered its trophic structure across various pest species using metabarcoding‐based molecular gut content analysis.

The shibirets4 mutation causes temperature sensitive paralytic and lethal phenotypes in the Queensland fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Bactrocera tryoni, the Queensland fruit fly, is among the most damaging insect pests to the Australian horticultural industry as larvae infest ripening fruits or vegetables prior to harvest. Genetic biocontrol using Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) programs have been used to successfully suppress populations, via mass release of factory‐reared ...

Sequence and expression analysis of potential spermatogenesis‐specific gene cognates in the Caribbean fruit fly, Anastrepha suspensa

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The sterile insect technique (SIT) is a highly effective biologically‐based method for the suppression of many insect pest populations. SIT efficacy could be improved by methods of male sterilization that avoid the use of irradiation that can result in diminished fitness and mating competitiveness.

Development and evaluation of pupal color‐based genetic sexing strains in Anastrepha obliqua (Diptera: Tephritidae)

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Two spontaneous mutations in pupae of the West Indian fruit fly Anastrepha obliqua, named bp and sp, were isolated and studied. The bp mutation was selected, and using two types of Y‐autosoma l translocation inducers and an appropriate crossing scheme, two genetically sexed strains based on pupa l color were developed for the first time in this species,
