Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) or spotted wing Drosophila is a worldwide invasive pest of soft‐ and stone‐fruit production. Female D. suzukii lay their eggs in ripening fruit and the hatched larvae damage fruit from the inside, rendering it unmarketable ...

Behavior evolution can promote the emergence of agricultural pests by changing their ecological niche. For example, the insect pest Drosophila suzukii has shifted its oviposition (egg-laying) niche from fermented fruits to ripe, non-fermented fruits ...

Efficiency of traps in collecting selected Diptera families according to the used bait: Comparison of baits and mixtures in a field experiment [PDF]
Traps made from PET bottles were used to assess the efficiency of four baits in terms of the number of individuals for selected Diptera families collecting in Eastern Slovak gardens in summer and autumn.

Studies of ectotherm responses to heat extremes often rely on assessing absolute critical limits for heat coma or death (CTmax), however, such single parameter metrics ignore the importance of stress exposure duration. Furthermore, population persistence

Insecticidal Activity of Selected Essential Oils against Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae)
The spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae), is an invasive polyphagous pest of soft-skinned fruit that has started to threaten small fruit production in Europe since 2008.

Conservation of Olfactory Avoidance in Drosophila Species and Identification of Repellents for Drosophila suzukii. [PDF]
Flying insects use olfaction to navigate towards fruits in complex odor environments with remarkable accuracy. Some fruits change odor profiles substantially during ripening and related species can prefer different stages.

Based on host specificity and distribution data, it has been hypothesized that Ganaspis brasiliensis (Ihering, 1905), a natural enemy of the horticultural pest spotted-wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura, 1931 (SWD), was composed of multiple ...
