Winter Is (Not) Coming: Is Climate Change Helping Drosophila suzukii Overwintering?

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Simple Summary Drosophila suzukii, also known as the spotted-wing drosophila (SWD), is a polyphagous insect pest of soft-skinned small fruits. SWD, similar to other insects, is affected by climate change-associated factors, yet its impacts on the pest ...

Bisexual releases are as effective as male‐only releases to control Drosophila suzukii with the sterile insect technique

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Bisexual releases are as effective as male‐only releases to control Drosophila suzukii with the sterile insect technique. Releasing sterile Drosophila suzukii males or males and females in cages led to the same degree of induced sterility in wild females.

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Behavioral Ecology of an Invasive Species: Habitat and Mate Preference(s) in Drosophila Suzukii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The invasive Spotted-Wing fruit fly, Drosophila suzukii, has inflicted substantial economic losses to the soft-fruit agriculture industry worldwide due to the ability of females in this species to use a large, serrated ovipositor to cut the fruit’s skin ...

Conned by the enemy: the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae lures and kills Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Highly pathogenic isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae attracted Drosophila suzukii. Identifying the responsible compounds for this attraction could help the development of these isolates for pest monitoring and overall pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Drosophila suzukii, commonly known as spotted wing drosophila (SWD), is a highly invasive and ...

Nutrient-Dependent Impact of Microbes on Drosophila suzukii Development

open access: yesmBio, 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.

Linking genomics and ecology to investigate the complex evolution of an invasive Drosophila pest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Drosophilid fruit flies have provided science with striking cases of behavioural adaptation and genetic innovation. A recent example is the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii, which, unlike most other Drosophila, lays eggs and feeds on undamaged, ripening ...

The effects of non‐crop habitat on spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) abundance in fruit systems: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, 2022
Drosophila suzukii (SWD) poses a threat to soft and stone fruit globally. SWD inhabits non‐crop areas adjacent to farms from where it moves into crops to cause damage.

Investigating zeta‐cypermethrin resistance stability in California Drosophila suzukii populations

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
After continuous selection and removal of selection pressure in spotted‐wing Drosophila, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance remained stable over several generations. Following a population bottleneck, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance increased without selection, highlighting the importance of insecticide rotation.

Ganaspis kimorum (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), a promising parasitoid for biological control of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae)

open access: yesJournal of Integrated Pest Management
Ganaspis Foerster includes several cryptic species that are important larval parasitoids of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), spotted-wing drosophila (SWD).
