Functional genomics of a symbiotic community : shared traits in the olive fruit fly gut microbiota [PDF]

, 2019
The olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae is a major pest of olives worldwide and houses a specialized gut microbiota dominated by the obligate symbiont “Candidatus Erwinia dacicola”. Ca. E. dacicola is thought to supplement dietary nitrogen to the host, with

Chemical cues involved in the host foraging behavior of Psyttalia concolor wasps to locate the olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Foraging parasitoids rely on infochemicals, derived from the habitat, host plant and/or host insect itself. Here, we studied the olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae (Rossi) (Diptera: Tephritidae), a major pest in olive agroecosystem and its larval ...

Understanding the seasonal and reproductive biology of olive fruit fly is critical to its management

California Agriculture, 2008
The olive fruit fly was first detected in Los Angeles in 1998 and in all the olive-growing regions of California soon after. Following its initial detection, UC researchers and Cooperative Extension farm advisors, county agricultural commissioners and ...

Effects of climatic changes on olive fly, Bactrocera oleae (Rossi) population dynamic with respect to the efficacy of its larval parasitoid in Egyptian olive trees

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2019
Background The potential effects of two parameters of climatic change conditions (temperature and relative humidity) on the population dynamics of the olive fly across the two ecological areas in Egypt were studied.

Benchmarking of computer vision methods for energy-efficient high-accuracy olive fly detection on edge devices

Multimedia tools and applications
The automation of insect pest control activities implies the use of classifiers to monitor the temporal and spatial evolution of the population using computer vision algorithms. In this regard, the popularisation of supervised learning methods represents

Micro and Nanostructural Diversity of Lizard Osteoderm Capping Tissue in Relation to Mechanical Performance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows that lizard osteoderm capping tissue is a hyper‐mineralized hydroxyapatite layer consistently covering the superficial osteoderm surface in those species studied here, yet it varies greatly in morphology, nanostructure, and mechanical performance across species.

Corn Zein Nanocarriers for Agrochemical Delivery and Smart Packaging

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This review explores zein, a corn‐derived biodegradable protein, as a multifunctional nanocarrier for sustainable agriculture and packaging. It examines advances in agrochemical delivery, smart packaging, and stimuli‐responsive systems, while addressing scalability, environmental fate, and regulatory barriers.

Aromatized to find mates: α-pinene aroma boosts the mating success of adult olive fruit flies. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Contrary to other Tephritidae, female but also male olive flies, Bactrocera oleae release pheromones during their sexual communication. Alpha-pinene, a common plant volatile found in high amounts in unripe olive fruit and leaves has been detected as one ...
