Volatile Host Fruit Odors as Attractants for the Oriental Fruit Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2000
We examined the responses of oriental fruit flies, Bactrocera dorsalis Hendel, to the odors of different stages and types of fruit presented on potted trees in a field cage. Females were most attracted to odors of soft, ripe fruit. Odors of common guava were more attractive to females than papaya and starfruit, and equally as attractive as strawberry ...

The Oriental Fruit Fly Host Database

Proceedings of the Florida State Horticultural Society
The Oriental fruit fly (OFF), Bactrocera dorsalis, is one of the most destructive pests in the world, with 437 species of known host plants. These include many of Florida’s fruit crops, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Because of the potential of OFF to economically damage Florida’s agricultural industry, an interactive database was created to help ...

Selection of Pupation Habitats by Oriental Fruit Fly Larvae in the Laboratory

Journal of Insect Behavior, 2001
We performed a series of laboratory experiments to determine the effects of shade, soil moisture, and soil compaction on the selection of pupation habitats by wandering late-instar Oriental fruit flies, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel). Larvae showed a strong preference toward pupating in shaded rather than brightly lit areas, in moist rather than dry soil,

Colorimetry of Papaya Fruits as an Index of Infestation Rates of Oriental Fruit Fly and Melon Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1990
An extensive field survey was conducted on the island of Hawaii to determine the relationship between the colorimetric quantitative ripeness indices of papaya ( Carica papaya L. cv. Kapoho Solo) and rates of infestation by oriental fruit fly, Dacus dorsalis Hendel, and melon fly, D. cucurbitae Coquillett.

Evaluation of Low-Temperature Phosphine Fumigation for Control of Oriental Fruit Fly in Loquat Fruit

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2018
Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel; Diptera: Tephritidae), is recognized as a quarantine pest and a threat to Chinese loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.) fruit exports. Since loquat fruit is very sensitive to methyl bromide (MB) fumigation and cold treatment, in this study, low-temperature phosphine (PH3) fumigation was investigated to ...

Evaluation of Oviposition Stimulants for Mass Production of Melon Fly, Oriental Fruit Fly, and Mediterranean Fruit Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1991
Responses of Melon fly, Dacus cucurbitae Coquillett, oriental fruit fly, Dacus dorsalis Hendel, and Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), to artificial oviposition bottles treated with various liquids derived from host juices or extracts and water was tested in a choice test device. Harvest of D. cucurbitae eggs was 89.4% higher from

Comparative Survival and Demographic Statistics for Wild Oriental Fruit Fly, Mediterranean Fruit Fly, and Melon Fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) on Papaya

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1990
Oriental fruit fly, Dacus dorsalis Hendel; melon fly, Dacus cucurmtae Coquillett; and Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) were reared from hosts collected within 40km of papaya, Carica papaya L., orchards. Survivorship and demographic statistics were compared for experimental F1 populations established on papaya fruit under ...
