Mass Trapping of Live Male Bactrocera dorsalis Hendel (Diptera: Tephritidae): Interaction between Trap Types and Period of Trapping

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Mass trapping of insects involves the use of specific traps or devices that are designed to attract and capture a large number of adult insects, thereby reducing their population in the agricultural environment. This approach aims at disrupting the breeding cycle and proliferation of the target insect to minimize crop damage and economic losses.

Bacterial symbiosis in Bactrocera oleae, an Achilles’ heel for its pest control

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 874-884, August 2021., 2021
Investigations on microbial symbioses in Tephritidae have increased over the past 30 years owing to the potential use of these relationships in developing new control strategies for economically important fruit flies. Bactrocera oleae (Rossi)—the olive fruit fly—is a monophagous species strictly associated with the olive tree, and among all the ...

Scientific opinion on the import of Musa fruits as a pathway for the entry of non‐EU Tephritidae into the EU territory

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2021., 2021
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Plant Health examined evidence as to whether the import of fruits of Musa (bananas and plantains) could provide a pathway into the EU for Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae) or other non‐EU Tephritidae for which Musa is a host. Relevant scientific and technical

Multiple mating by females of two Bactrocera species (Diptera: Tephritidae: Dacinae) [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of Entomological Research, 2009
AbstractMultiple mating was investigated in two tephritid species when females were under minimal male pressure because they were each confined with a single male in cages 20×20×20 cm and observed daily until they died. Laboratory-reared females of Bactrocera cucumis (French) lived up to 274 days and refractory periods averaged 59–63 days. However, the
