(Facultad de Ciencias Agropecuarias, Universidad Nacional de Entre Ríos, 2022)Desde el año 2012, y siguiendo las normativas de la provincia, una destilería de Tucumán aplica la vinaza generada en la producción de bioetanol en sus campos productivos de caña de azúcar. Con el objetivo de observar y ... -
Trichopria anastrephae: A Promising Neotropical-Native Parasitoid for Drosophila suzukii Control
(MDPI, 2024-03)Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) is an invasive pest mainly affecting berry and stone fruit crops worldwide. In Argentina, it inhabits fruit-growing regions. An eco-friendly management strategy involves biological control ... -
Does the Neotropical-native parasitoid Ganaspis pelleranoi successfully attack the worldwide invasive pest Drosophila suzukii?
(Wiley, 2024-03)The Asian Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is a harmful invasive pest widespread throughout Argentinian fruit-producing regions. It coexists with both pests, the sub-Saharan African Ceratitis capitata ... -
The Population Dynamics and Parasitism Rates of Ceratitis capitata, Anastrepha fraterculus, and Drosophila suzukii in Non-Crop Hosts: Implications for the Management of Pest Fruit Flies
(MDPI, 2024-01)Understanding the seasonal dynamics inherent to non-crop host–fruit fly–parasitoid interactions is vitally important for implementing eco-friendly pest control strategies. This study assessed the abundance and seasonal ... -
