Winter fruit contribution to the performance of the invasive fruit fly Drosophila suzukii under different thermal regimes

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.

High migratory potential of fall armyworm in West Africa despite stable temperatures and widely available year‐round habitats

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Despite the minimal annual temperature variation and the widespread distribution of potential year‐round habitats in Ghana, the migratory potential of the local fall armyworm remains strong and is indistinguishable from that of the fall armyworm in China, which undergo seasonal migration.

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 ...

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.

Functional validation of a white pupae minimal gene construct in Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Insect Science, EarlyView.
An intronless version of the white pupae (wp) gene was engineered to restore the wild type brown puparium color in white pupae phenotype mutants of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Functionality of the minimal gene version (mini‐wp) was verified in vivo, as one copy of mini‐wp successfully restored the wild type phenotype in homozygous ...
