Chromosome‐scale genome assembly of the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus sp.1

open access: yesInsect Science
Abstract Anastrepha fraterculus is a cryptic species complex with at least eight morphotypes distributed across the Americas. Among them, A. fraterculus sp.1, present in Argentina, is a major pest impacting fresh fruit production.

Potential global distribution of the south American cucurbit fruit fly Anastrepha grandis (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Crop Protection, 2021
Abstract The South American cucurbit fruit fly Anastrepha grandis (Macquart, 1846) (Diptera: Tephritidae) is considered a quarantine pest by several countries and, therefore, further knowledge about its ability to disperse and establish itself in new territories and its ecological niche is necessary.

Anastrepha fraterculus (South American fruit fly).

2021
Abstract A. fraterculus has a broad host range, particularly in the family Myrtaceae, but it is also a pest of citrus and apples [Malus domestica] in some areas. It is the most important pest species of Anastrepha in subtropical areas of South America, thus it and Anastrepha ludens may be more of a threat of introduction to other ...

Anastrepha grandis (South American cucurbit fruit fly).

2021
Abstract A. grandis is a pest of various cultivated species of Cucurbitaceae, especially pumpkin (Cucurbita spp.), squash (Cucurbita spp.) and melon [Cucumis melo]. It occurs in the Andean countries, Paraguay, southern Brazil, and northern Argentina. It has been intercepted at ports in the USA, indicating its potential for spread via

Cuticular Hydrocarbons of the South American Fruit Fly Anastrepha fraterculus: Variability with Sex and Age

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2012
Insect cuticular hydrocarbons are usually species-specific mixtures and may serve for species and gender recognition. They are, therefore, widely used in the chemotaxonomy and zoogeography of various insect taxa. In order to provide a basic study for further comparative analyses of cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profiles of cryptic species hidden within ...

Host‐marking pheromone of the South American fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus and cross‐recognition by the Mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Journal of Applied Entomology, 2022
AbstractFollowing oviposition, females of many fruit flies deposit on the fruit surface a host‐marking pheromone (HMP) that can deter oviposition by conspecifics and heterospecifics, thereby minimizing overexploitation of hosts. We describe the oviposition behaviour of two economically important fruit flies (Anastrepha fraterculus and Ceratitis ...

Phylogeographic studies on natural populations of the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Genetica, 2007
Anastrepha fraterculus is an important pest of commercial fruits in South America. The variability observed for morphological and behavioural traits as well as genetic markers suggests that A. fraterculus represents a complex of synmorphic species rather than a single biological species.

High dilution ofStaphysagriaand fruit fly biotherapic preparations to manage South American fruit fly,Anastrepha fraterculus,in organic peach orchards

Biological Agriculture & Horticulture, 2012
The peach, Prunus persica, is an important economic crop in southern Brazil, where family farms are predominantly small. The South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus is a limiting factor to increased production in orchard crops. Increased organic production in Brazil has stimulated research to find ecological based pest management.
