The bacterial communities of Drosophila suzukii collected from undamaged cherries [PDF]

PeerJ, 2014
Drosophila suzukii is an introduced pest insect that feeds on undamaged, attached fruit. This diet is distinct from the fallen, discomposing fruits utilized by most other species of Drosophila.

Sexual Behavior of Drosophila suzukii [PDF]

Insects, 2015
A high reproductive potential is one reason for the rapid spread of Drosophila suzukii in Europe and in the United States. In order to identify mechanisms that mediate mating and reproduction in D. suzukii we studied the fly’s reproductive behavior, diurnal mating activity and sexual maturation.

CRISPR/Cas9-based split homing gene drive targeting doublesex for population suppression of the global fruit pest Drosophila suzukii

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2023
Significance Spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) is a vinegar fly with a worldwide distribution that does significant economic damage to soft-skinned fruits.

Behavioral Responses of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) to Blends of Synthetic Fruit Volatiles Combined With Isoamyl Acetate and β-Cyclocitral

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Baits and lures for trapping and monitoring the invasive vinegar fly Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae) are currently derived from fermentation volatiles.

Effects of co-occurrence and intra- and interspecific interactions between Drosophila suzukii and Zaprionus indianus

PLoS ONE, 2023
In drosophilids, competition and coexistence can impact survivorship, growth, and reproductive output. Here, we evaluated direct competition between two co-occurring fruit flies, the spotted-wing drosophila Drosophila suzukii and the African fig fly ...

Phylogenetic analysis and designing new primers for molecular identification of Drosophila suzukii

RUDN Journal of Agronomy and Animal Industries, 2021
The family Drosophilidae includes over 3750 species worldwide and over 2000 of these are species of Drosophila. Spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii is one of the most dangerous species in this family.

First report on classical biological control releases of the larval parasitoid Ganaspis brasiliensis against Drosophila suzukii in northern Italy

BioControl (Dordrecht), 2023
Current management strategy of the invasive fruit fly Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) exploits different tools but relies mainly on chemical control.

Microbiota-mediated competition between Drosophila species

Microbiome, 2023
Background The influence of microbiota in ecological interactions, and in particular competition, is poorly known. We studied competition between two insect species, the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii and the model Drosophila melanogaster, whose larval

Evolutionary shifts in taste coding in the fruit pest Drosophila suzukii

eLife, 2021
Although most Drosophila species lay eggs in overripe fruit, the agricultural pest Drosophila suzukii lays eggs in ripe fruit. We found that changes in bitter taste perception have accompanied this adaptation.
