Previously introduced braconid parasitoids target recent olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae) invaders in Hawai’i

Scientific Reports, 2023
The olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae (Diptera: Tephritidae) was detected on Maui and Hawai’i Islands in 2019, affecting yields and quality of the state’s emerging olive oil industry.

Oviposition Deterrent Activity of Fungicides and Low-Risk Substances for the Integrated Management of the Olive Fruit Fly Bactrocera oleae (Diptera, Tephritidae)

Insects, 2022
The control of Bactrocera oleae is fundamental to decreasing the significant production loss in olive cultivation. However, traditional containment based on the use of synthetic insecticides has been encountering serious limitations due to their negative

Infestation of Olive Fruit Fly, Bactrocera oleae, in California and Taxonomy of its Host Trees [PDF]

, 2005
The results of the trapping survey were analyzed to determine the taxonomy of various tree species infested by the olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae) in California. Since its first appearance in California in 1998, the olive fruit fly has spread from Los

A nonoccluded reovirus of the olive fly, Dacus oleae.

Journal of General Virology, 1997
We have isolated paraspherical viral particles, 60 nm in diameter, from adults of the olive fly (Dacus oleae) collected in Greece. The virus actively replicated in midgut epithelial cells and in advanced infections virions accumulated in microvilli. They were released in the gut lumen and were very abundant in fly faeces.

Species traits mediate the abundant‐center patterns in ground‐dwelling mammal and bird species in China

Ecography, EarlyView.
The abundance center hypothesis (ACH) posits that species abundance peaks at distribution centers; however, empirical support remains inconsistent. This study tested the generality of the ACH and investigated species traits as mediators of abundance–distance relationships.

Environmental Pesticide Exposure in the Etiology of Pediatric Brain Tumors and Leukemia: A Scoping Review of Epidemiological Studies

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children. The etiologies of pediatric cancer are largely unknown, but environmental pesticide exposures are likely to contribute. Chronic low‐dose exposure to pesticide mixtures through drinking water is a growing concern in agricultural communities.

Exploring the Connection between the Occurrence and Intensity of “Grubby” Defect and Volatile Composition of Olive Oil

Foods, 2023
In order to investigate the relationship between the occurrence of the “grubby” sensory defect caused by olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae (Rossi)) infestation and the resulting volatile composition, virgin olive oils were extracted from olives of the ...

Effectiveness of clays and copper products in the control of Bactrocera oleae (Gmelin) [PDF]

, 2006
Repellent and antiovipositional products in the control of Bactrocera oleae (Gmelin) find a great interest in organic farming, because of the lack of effective products able to kill the olive fruit fly larvae and eggs.

Functional diversity in agricultural landscapes: evidence of long‐term clustering and multi‐scale effects of land use on avian communities

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 6, June 2026.
Functional diversity (FD) is an essential community property connecting biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and conservation objectives. In agricultural landscapes, avian communities, which play key functional roles, are facing large‐scale biodiversity erosion, largely due to land‐use changes.

Horizontal transfer and finalization of a reliable detection method for the olive fruit fly endosymbiont, Candidatus Erwinia dacicola

BMC Biotechnology, 2019
Background The olive fly, Bactrocera oleae, is the most important insect pest in olive production, causing economic damage to olive crops worldwide. In addition to extensive research on B. oleae control methods, scientists have devoted much effort in the
