Using thermal death time models to analyze cold stress resistance across Drosophila species

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Chill susceptible insects such as Drosophila are vulnerable to progressive disruption of homeostasis during cold stress, and low‐temperature exposure is a key factor affecting their physiology and distribution.

Invasive success of Drosophila suzukii: Is Wolbachia playing a role?

, 2023
International audienceInvasive species constitute a worldwide issue, jeopardizing biodiversity and engendering important economic losses. A better understanding of how they can establish under envi- ronmental conditions that are different from those they

Optical Identification of Fruitfly Species Based on Their Wingbeats Using Convolutional Neural Networks

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The spotted wing Drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii, is a significant invasive pest of berries and soft-skinned fruits that causes major economic losses in fruit production worldwide.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Nutrient-Dependent Impact of Microbes on Drosophila suzukii Development

mBio, 2018
Drosophila suzukii Matsumura is an invasive species of vinegar fly that has become a prominent pest of berries and other soft-skinned fruits. Unlike most other Drosophila species, female D.

Adaptation of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii to a specialized nutritional niche

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Unlike most Drosophila larvae that feed on spoiled food, Drosophila suzukii larvae thrive on ripening fruits and consequently face a low‐protein, high‐carbohydrate nutritional challenge. Comparisons of growth among D. suzukii, D. biarmipes, and D. melanogaster larvae across diets with varying protein‐to‐carbohydrate ratios demonstrate that D.

Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived bacterial semiochemicals

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived airborne semiochemicals. Egg‐borne bacterial symbionts, and Serratia marcescens in particular, produce odorants which attract gravid female flies and elicit oviposition.

Behavioral Rhythms of Drosophila Suzukii and Drosophila Melanogaster

Florida Entomologist, 2014
Drosophila suzukii and Drosophila melanogaster feed on various fruits, causing great economic losses. In order to find the optimum time for controlling D. suzukii and D. melanogaster, the daily rhythms of oviposition, egg hatch, pupation, adult eclosion, copulation, and feeding of these two pests were studied.

Morphometric Measurements of Field and Laboratory-Reared Spotted-Wing Drosophila (2017-2018)

, 2018
The data set contains wing length, wing width, and hind tibia length of laboratory-reared known summer and winter morphs of Drosophila suzukii. Summer morphs were reared on artificial diet at 16:8 (light:dark) and at 25°C.

Near-chromosome level genome assembly of the fruit pest Drosophila suzukii using long-read sequencing [PDF]

, 2020
International audienceOver the past decade, the spotted wing Drosophila, Drosophila suzukii, has invaded Europe and America and has become a major agricultural pest in these areas, thereby prompting intense research activities to better understand its ...
