La mosca de la fruta (Ceratitis capitata).
(AER Río Primero, INTA, 2019-12-23)Es una de las plagas más importantes en los frutales de nuestras huertas porque ataca a diferentes especies de frutales y no solamente los cultivados sino también los silvestres. Las moscas adultas miden entre 4 a 5 mm. ... -
Mosca de los frutos
(Estación Experimental Agropecuaria La Rioja, INTA, 2023-06)Las moscas de los frutos son una de las plagas difíciles de controlar, debido a que tanto en la zona rural como en el urbano disponen de numerosos hospederos, ya sean plantas cultivadas como plantas autóctonas. Su ... -
Ongoing speciation within the Anastrepha fraterculus cryptic species complex: the case of the Andean morphotype
(Wiley, 2014-09)The Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) cryptic species complex is currently composed of seven taxonomically recognized morphotypes. Both, pre‐ and post‐zygotic isolation has been documented among ... -
Plant chemicals and the sexual behavior of male tephritid fruit flies
(Oxford University Press, 2018-09)Plant compounds affect insects in many different ways. In addition to being a food source, plants also contain secondary metabolites that may have positive and negative impacts on insects. The influence of these compounds ... -
Precocious sexual signalling and mating in Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) sterile males achieved through juvenile hormone treatment and protein supplements
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-02)Sexual maturation of Anastrepha fraterculus is a long process. Methoprene (a mimic of juvenile hormone) considerably reduces the time for sexual maturation in males. However, in other Anastrepha species, this effect depends ... -
Remating behavior in Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae) females is affected by male juvenile hormone analog treatment but not by male sterilization
(Cambridge University Press, 2013-06)The sterile insect technique (SIT) has been proposed as an area-wide method to control the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann). This technique requires sterilization, a procedure that affects, along ... -
Sex chromosomes in mitotic and polytene tissues of Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera, Tephritidae) from Argentina: a review
(Pensoft Publishers, 2015-11)Cytogenetics, which is considered a fundamental tool to understand basic genetic and genomic issues of species, has greatly contributed to the description of polymorphisms both at inter- and intra-specific level. In fact, ... -
Sexual competitiveness of sterile Ceratitis capitata males exposed to essential oils from non-host plant species native to Argentina
(Wiley, 2023-02)The sterile insect technique (SIT) is used to control fruit fly pests, such as the Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly), Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae). Enhancing sexual competitiveness of mass-reared ... -
Transcriptome analysis of Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 males, females, and embryos: insights into development, courtship, and reproduction
(BioMed Central, 2020-12)Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 is considered a quarantine pest in several American countries. Since chemical control applied in an integrated pest management program is the only strategy utilized against this pest, the ... -
Wolbachia pipientis associated with tephritid fruit fly pests: from basic research to applications
(Frontiers Media, 2020-06)Members of the true fruit flies (family Tephritidae) are among the most serious agricultural pests worldwide, whose control and management demands large and costly international efforts. The need for cost-effective and ...
