Effect of Fruit Volatiles from Native Host Plants on the Sexual Performance of Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 Males
(MDPI, 2023-02)Anastrepha fraterculus sp.1 males are sexually stimulated by the aroma of fruit of its native host Psidium guajava (guava). Other hosts, which are exotic to A. fraterculus, do not enhance male sexual behavior. Here we ... -
Mating-induced changes in responses of female Queensland fruit fly to male pheromones and fruit : a mechanism for mating-induced sexual inhibition
(Elsevier, 2021-03)In order to reproduce, female tephritid fruit flies need both mates for fertilization and fruit for oviposition. Virgin females are prone to mating and approach males, attracted by their pheromones. Mated females, however, ... -
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 ... -
Timing of exposure and nutritional status affect male response to guava volatiles, a known courtship enhancer of Anastrepha fraterculus
(Springer, 2021-06)Finding ways to improve the sexual competitiveness of laboratory reared males have proven beneficial for the sterile insect technique. Exposure to essential oils enhances male mating success in several species of Tephritidae ... -
Variaciones estacionales de características seminales, circunferencia escrotal y comportamiento sexual en carneros Pampinta y Corriedale
(Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata, 2009-12)La Estación Experimental del INTA Anguil (La Pampa) dio origen a la raza Pampinta, resultante del cruzamiento de animales de raza Frisona del Este (Ost-Friesisches Milchschaf u Ost-Frison) de origen alemán con aptitud ... -
Volatiles of essential oils and yeast derivatives influence mating behaviour of Anastrepha fraterculus males under field cage conditions
(Wiley, 2024-03-25)The sterile insect technique (SIT) is used for the management of tephritid fruit fly pests. The South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is one potential pest to be targeted by ...
