Insect Science, EarlyView.Highlights: The contribution of winter and early spring‐available fruit (Aucuba japonica, Elaeagnus ×submacrophylla, and Viscum album) to the performance of D. suzukii depended on their P:C ratio and biophysical properties Even though D. suzukii performance was the lowest in A.

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)
Insect Science, EarlyView.As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...

Morphometric criteria to differentiate Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) seasonal morphs
PLoS ONE, 2020 Temperate insect species often enter diapause in preparation for overwintering. One such species is the invasive vinegar fly, Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), which has seasonal polymorphisms, considered winter and summer morphs.

The transformer gene controls sexual development in Drosophila suzukii
Insect Science, EarlyView.The transformer gene plays a key role in the genetic pathway for sexual development in Drosophila suzukii Abstract The genetic network of sex determination in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster was investigated in great detail. Such knowledge not only advances our understanding of the evolution and regulation of sexual dimorphism in insects ...

Drosophila melanogaster mutant tan [PDF]
, 2009 Drosophila melanogaster gene tan was originally discovered in the early 20th century as a mutant strain lacking the dark pi gment pattern of wild-type (wt) f lies and, therefore, showing a light yellowish brown color (McEwen, 1918 ...

Genetic engineering for SIT application: a fruit fly‐focused review
Insect Science, EarlyView.Abstract Sterile insect technique (SIT) has become a key component of efficient pest control. Fruit fly pests from the Drosophilidae and Tephritidae families pose a substantial and overwhelmingly increasing threat to the agricultural industry, aggravated by climate change and globalization among other contributors.
