Analysis of Gene Expression in Aedes aegypti Suggests Changes in Early Genetic Control of Mosquito Development

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aedes aegypti, a critical vector for tropical diseases, poses significant challenges for studying its embryogenesis due to difficulties in removing its rigid chorion and achieving effective fixation for in situ hybridization. Here, we present novel methodologies for fixation, dechorionation, DAPI staining, and in situ hybridization, enabling ...

SUSCEPTIBILITY OF SPOTTED WING DROSOPHILA (Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura, 1931)) PUPAE TO ENTOMOPATHOGENIC FUNGI

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2017
Spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura, 1931), Diptera, Drosophilidae) management is difficult mainly because of its short generation time, polyphagy and serrated ovipositor, but also because its larvae can pupate in the orchard soil and ...

Investigating zeta‐cypermethrin resistance stability in California Drosophila suzukii populations

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
After continuous selection and removal of selection pressure in spotted‐wing Drosophila, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance remained stable over several generations. Following a population bottleneck, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance increased without selection, highlighting the importance of insecticide rotation.

Managing Spotted Wing Drosophila in Florida Blueberries

EDIS
Since its first detection in 2009, spotted wing drosophila (SWD) is common in all of Florida’s fruit-producing counties. Surveys indicate that SWD are active year-round in Florida’s warm climate, with peak activity from April to May when the blueberry ...

Spotted wing drosophila: distribution of populations over time in wild and crop hosts [PDF]

, 2012
Spotted wing drosophila (SWD) was first confirmed in NY at some eastern Long Island farms in 2011. Fruit flies typically attack rotting fruits; SWD, however, feeds in intact fruits.

Volatile codes: Correlation of olfactory signals and reception in Drosophila-yeast chemical communication. [PDF]

, 2015
Drosophila have evolved strong mutualistic associations with yeast communities that best support their growth and survival, resulting in the development of novel niches.

Synergistic attraction: Development and field evaluation of a multicomponent lure for Zeugodacus cucurbitae based on host‐plant volatiles and gut bacterium‐derived volatiles

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The newly developed ternary blend was validated in field trials and proved highly effective in attracting both male and female Zeugodacus cucurbitae. Abstract BACKGROUND Zeugodacus cucurbitae is a global quarantine pest. Management of this pest relies heavily on chemical insecticides, which impose substantial environmental burdens. Male‐specific lures [

From pollen provision to pollinator: Species‐specific sterol assimilation by wild bees in urban landscapes

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven landscape change, particularly urbanization, is reshaping pollinator communities, yet the functional traits that mediate species persistence remain poorly understood. Dietary specialization is commonly used to predict species vulnerability.
