DsiRNA‐mediated silencing of Ceratitis capitata transformer or transformer‐2 leads to masculinization of XX embryos and systemic gene silencing in ovaries

Insect Science, EarlyView.
We carried out functional studies using Dicer‐substrate small interfering RNAs (DsiRNAs), targeting the sex determination genes Cctransformer (Cctra) and Cctransformer‐2 (Cctra‐2) in the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata). Microinjection of DsiRNAs into XX embryos (0‐1 h old) rapidly triggered the expression of male‐specific Cctra isoforms ...

Effect of male age at the time of irradiation on the sexual performance of sterile Ceratitis capitata males: insights from remating female offspring

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) is an effective strategy for controlling insect pests, such as the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata, Wiedemann). The effectiveness of the SIT depends on the ability of the sterile males to mate and their capacity to induce sterility in wild females.

CRISPR/Cas9‐based white pupae mutant lines in Bactrocera spp. for sterile insect technique applications

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Bactrocera fruit flies are significant horticultural pests that cause major economic losses. A “neoclassical approach” incorporating genome editing via CRISPR/Cas9 to develop genetic sexing strains (GSS) could render the sterile insect technique (SIT) against these pests more efficient and cost‐effective.

Neoclassical development of genetic sexing strains for insect pest and disease vector control

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The sterile insect technique has been effectively used for decades, and an important component is the availability of sex separation systems, in particular genetic sexing strains. Classical approaches, such as irradiation‐induced chromosomal translocations, have yielded stable strains for species like the Mediterranean fruit fly.
