The development of a lure and kill system for control of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

open access: yes, 2012
The Mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann (Diptera: Tephritidae) is a polyphagous pest of global economic importance. As a result, many systems have been proposed to reduce their impact and population spread, each of which has its ...

The exploration of fruit flies Bactrocera (Diptera:Tephritidae) and its parasitoid in Madura Island regions

open access: yesJournal of Biological Researches, 2016
Madura is enriched by great diversity despite of its infertile natural condition. This condition influences fruit flies existence and diversity. Purpose of this study was to investigate the diversity and distribution of fruit flies with their host in ...

Multimodal Sensory Control of Exploration by Walking Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Walking fruit flies, Drosophila melanogaster, use visual information to orient towards salient objects in their environment, presumably as a search strategy for finding food, shelter or other resources.

Revisiting Securidaca longipedunculata Seed Oil: Applying NMR and Mass Spectroscopy to Confirm the Presence of 2‐Acetyl‐1,3‐Diacyl–sn‐Glycerols and Conjugated Hydroxydienoic Fatty Acids

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
The manuscript confirms and expands on previous reports concerning the presence of unusual conjugated hydroxydienoic fatty acids and acetyl‐TAG in the seed oil of Securidaca longipedunculata. The location of acetate only at sn‐2 of TAG was conclusively shown by high resolution NMR and hydroxy seed fatty acids are characterized.

Morpho‐functional analyses of the jaw apparatus in the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna, Psittaciformes, Aves): Adaptations to feeding behavior

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Odour intensity learning in fruit flies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2009
Animals' behaviour towards odours depends on both odour quality and odour intensity. While neuronal coding of odour quality is fairly well studied, how odour intensity is treated by olfactory systems is less clear. Here we study odour intensity processing at the behavioural level, using the fruit flyDrosophila melanogaster.
