Characterization of the Drosophila suzukii β2-tubulin gene and the utilization of its promoter to monitor sex separation and insemination

Ying Yan et al.

Summary: The Drosophila melanogaster beta 2-tubulin gene has been evaluated for use in biocontrol strategies for the spotted-wing Drosophila. By isolating and studying the ortholog Ds-beta 2t from the USA laboratory strain of D. suzukii, researchers have confirmed its potential for sexing and mating confirmation. Transgenic strains expressing a fluorescent protein under the control of the Ds-beta 2t promoter showed efficient sexing capabilities and comparable survival rates to wild-type males.

A conditional female lethal system for genetic suppression of the global fruit crop pest Drosophila suzukii

Fang Li et al.

Summary: The study developed transgenic strains of D. suzukii with dominant conditional female lethal transgenes. When raised without tetracycline, female D. suzukii die. Laboratory cage trials show that releasing excess transgenic males can suppress D. suzukii populations.

A transgenic female killing system for the genetic control of Drosophila suzukii

Marc F. Schetelig et al.

Summary: A new conditional female-killing (FK) strategy based on the tetracycline-off system was developed to combat the spotted wing Drosophila. Through testing different genetic constructs and transgenic strains, a construct that achieved female-specific lethality in the absence of tetracycline was identified, effectively controlling the population of female pests. Suggestions for potential improvements to the gene constructs and the use of FK strains in a sterile insect technique (SIT) program are discussed.
