Repelling Fruit Flies with Essential Oils and Their Components: the Peach Fruit Fly Bactrocera zonata. [PDF]
Abstract The peach fruit fly (PFF) Bactrocera zonata (Diptera: Tephritidae) is a major agricultural pest attacking at least 55 plants of economic importance. Previous studies have identified unique compounds in each sex, but none of these appear attractive to either sex. However, it is well known that methyl eugenol (ME) found in nectaries of

Larval nutritional-stress and tolerance to extreme temperatures in the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata (Diptera: Tephritidae). [PDF]
Within the factors affecting insect tolerance to extreme environmental conditions, insect nutrition, particularly of immature stages, has received insufficient attention. In the present study, we address this gap by investigating the effects of larval nutrition on heat and cold tolerance of adult Bactrocera zonata - an invasive, polyphagous fruit fly ...

Ultrastructure of the antennal sensillae of male and female peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata. [PDF]
Antennal morphology and funicular sensillae of male and female peach fruit flies, Bactrocera zonata (Saunders) (Diptera: Tephritidae), were studied with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). This study focused on the sensillae found on the antennal segments (scape, pedicel, and flagellum or funiculus that bears the arista) of B. zonata. Antennal segments

Molecular phylogeny and identification of the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata, established in Egypt. [PDF]
The genetic structure of the Egyptian peach fruit fly (Bactrocera zonata (Saunders) (Diptera: Tephritidae)) population was analyzed using total RNA from adult females. A portion of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI), 369 bp was amplified using RT-PCR, and was sequenced and analyzed to clarify the phylogenetic relationship of B. zonata established
