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,

DsiRNA‐mediated silencing of Ceratitis capitata transformer or transformer‐2 leads to masculinization of XX embryos and systemic gene silencing in ovaries

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
We carried out functional studies using Dicer‐substrate small interfering RNAs (DsiRNAs), targeting the sex determination genes Cctransformer (Cctra) and Cctransformer‐2 (Cctra‐2) in the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata). Microinjection of DsiRNAs into XX embryos (0‐1 h old) rapidly triggered the expression of male‐specific Cctra isoforms ...
