Control of Bactrocera oleae and Ceratitis capitata in Organic Orchards: Use of Clays and Copper Products. [PDF]
Tests on the effect of clays (kaolin and bentonite) and copper products (hydroxide and oxychloride) in the control of olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae (Rossi), and Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), were carried out from 2003 to ...

Concise approach for the synthesis of 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane, a Dacus oleae pheromone
A simple and efficient route for the synthesis of 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane (Olean), a major component of the male sex attractant of the pheromone blend of the olive fruit fly has been accomplished in six steps starting from 1,4-butanediol. This is the

Intraspecific Larval Competition in the Olive Fruit Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]
Olive fruit flies [Bactrocera oleae (Gmelin)] occur at densities in California that can result in intraspecific larval competition within infested fruit. Larval B. oleae densities tracked in the field at six location were found to be highly variable and related to the proportion of fruit infested and adult densities.

Case Study 1: Olive Fruit Fly (Bactrocera oleae) [PDF]
The olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae is a phytophagous insect associated to olive trees (Olea europaea, Oleaceae). Its larvae monophagously feed on olive fruits, the fly is therefore considered the most severe pest of olive cultivation causing tremendous economic losses.

Anosmic flies: what Orco silencing does to olive fruit flies
Background The olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae) is the most destructive pest of the olive cultivation worldwide causing significant production losses and olive fruit impoverishment, as its larvae feed exclusively on the olive fruit.

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