Development of a larval diet for the South American fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]
International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 2014 Mass-rearing protocols must be developed, in particular, a cost-effective larval diet, to implement the sterile insect technique against Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann). The key elements of this diet are the optimal nutrients and their concentrations, diet supports or bulking agents, and the pH of the diet.
