Abstract:
... Drosophila suzukii and Drosophila melanogaster feed on various fruits, causing great economic losses. In order to find the optimum time for controlling D. suzukii and D. melanogaster, the daily rhythms of oviposition, egg hatch, pupation, adult eclosion, copulation, and feeding of these two pests were studied. We found the circadian rhythm of D. suzukii oviposition to have a single pattern with a ...

Abstract:
... In 2013–2015, Mexico implemented a program of exploration and evaluation of native parasitoids of the spotted-wing drosophila Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura). Those efforts identified Pachycrepoideus vindemmaie Rondani and Trichopria drosophilae Perkins as native parasitoid species. Biological and population parameters, including oviposition preference on locally occurring species of Drosophilidae, ...

Abstract:
... Drosophila suzukii and Drosophila melanogaster coexist with different but overlapping resource use in the field. When forced to completely or partially share resources in the laboratory, D. melanogaster outcompetes D. suzukii . Adult D. suzukii and D. melanogaster females were allowed to compete for access to a common oviposition resource in pairwise and population scale experiments. We tracked th ...

Abstract:
... Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosphilidae) is an important pest that causes damage to fruits of over 60 plant species. Drosophila suzukii oviposits on ripe fruit, while D. melanogaster oviposits on decaying fruit. Therefore, these species occupy separate ecological niches. To provide a better understanding of the alcohol tolerance between these 2 species and explore the relationship of ...

Abstract:
... Spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii Mat. (Diptera: Drosophilidae), is a recent fruit pest of the Americas whose destructiveness stems from its subcutaneous insertion of eggs into cultivated berries via the female's prominent double bladed and serrated ovipositor. Atypical of most other Drosophila, D. suzukii adults and larvae are non-saprophagous and therefore do not have to contend ...

Abstract:
... Economic losses in a range of fruit crops due to the Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) have become severe. Removal and treatment of fruit waste, which may harbor D. suzukii, is a key step in preventing reinfestation of fruit production. Natural fermentation for disinfesting fruit wastes from D. suzukii was examined at ambient air temperatures of 12–20 °C. Soft and stone fruit wastes infested with egg ...

Abstract:
... Insect parasitoids are often manipulated to improve biological control programs for various arthropod pests. Volatile compounds can be a relevant cue used by most parasitoid hymenoptera for host or host microhabitat location. Here, we studied olfactory responses of the braconid Asobara japonica Belokobylskij, an Asiatic endoparasitoid of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), toward its ...

Abstract:
... The worldwide invasive insect pest, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (spotted-wing Drosophila), lays eggs in soft and stone fruit before harvest. Hatched larvae cause fruit collapse and significant economic losses. Current control methods rely primarily on foliar insecticide applications, which are not sustainable long-term solutions due to regulatory restrictions and the risk of insecticide resistanc ...

Abstract:
... Since its recent invasion in Europe (2008) Drosophila suzukii has been responsible for severe economic losses in small fruit, cherry and strawberry cultivation. Because of the short generation time and high fecondity it is likely that D. suzukii will become resistant to some of the most widely used pesticides like spinosad and lambda-cyhalothrin. The use of these toxic insecticides comes with heal ...
