The effects of non-crop habitat on spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) abundance in fruit systems: A meta-analysis

Nicolas Buck et al.

Summary: Drosophila suzukii (SWD) poses a threat to fruit crops worldwide. Non-crop habitats, particularly woodland and field margins with host plants, have a greater impact on SWD population than cropped areas. The difference in SWD abundance between crop and non-crop habitats is influenced by winter months and conventional farming methods.

Biological control potential of entomopathogenic fungal strains against peach Fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata (Saunders) (Diptera: Tephritidae)

Ghulam Murtaza et al.

Summary: The peachfruit fly, Bactrocera zonata, is a polyphagous pest that mainly feeds on crops, vegetables, and fruits. The excessive use of chemical insecticides to control this pest has led to concerns regarding public health and the environment. This study evaluated the virulence of three entomopathogenic fungi against B. zonata and found that B. bassiana and M. anisopliae were the most effective. These findings suggest that these fungi could be used as cost-effective bio-insecticides in integrated pest management programs.

Farmers' knowledge and perceptions on fruit flies and willingness to pay for a fruit fly integrated pest management strategy in Gamo Gofa zone, Ethiopia

Beatrice W. Muriithi et al.

Summary: The study found that 47% of respondents are willing to pay for the IPM strategy in mango producing districts in the Goma Gofa zone, Ethiopia, indicating existing demand for fruit fly IPM. Farmers' willingness to pay for the strategy is influenced by farm and socio-economic characteristics, and enhancing extension agents' skills could facilitate IPM dissemination and adoption among mango growers in the region.

The abundance and diversity of fruit flies and their parasitoids change with elevation in guava orchards in a tropical Andean forest of Peru, independent of seasonality

Paolo Salazar-Mendoza et al.

Summary: The study found that lower elevations have a greater abundance and species richness of fruit flies and their parasitoids, leading to higher infestation rates in guava fruits. Seasonality influenced fruit fly populations, with more flies emerging in the rainy season, but had no effect on parasitoid populations or their influence on fruit flies in guava orchards. This study emphasizes the importance of considering both elevation and seasonality for understanding the population dynamics of fruit flies and their parasitoids in tropical agroecosystems.

Are Yeast Autolysate Attractants for Ceratitis Species (Diptera: Tephritidae) in South Africa More Attractive and Palatable Than a Currently Used Protein Attractant?

Timothy G. Grout et al.

Summary: The study revealed that yeast autolysates were less attractive to Ceratitis capitata, Ceratitis rosa s.s. Karsch, and Ceratitis cosyra compared to attractants containing hydrolysate, indicating that further investigation of autolysates for controlling these quarantine pests is not warranted.
