Variation in selection and utilization of host crops in the field and laboratory by Drosophila suzukii Matsumara (Diptera: Drosophilidae), an invasive frugivore

PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE, 69(10), 1173–1180.

By: H. Burrack n, G. Fernandez n, T. Spivey* & D. Kraus n

author keywords: invasive species; range expansion; host preference; performance; caneberries; Rubus
MeSH headings : Animals; Drosophila / physiology; Fruit / parasitology; Host Specificity; Plant Diseases / parasitology; Rosaceae / classification; Rosaceae / parasitology; Southeastern United States
topics (OpenAlex): Insect behavior and control techniques; Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect-Plant Interactions and Control
TL;DR: Infestation rates differ between species and varieties within species of Rubus in the southeastern United States, and fruit penetration force is one potential measure of host susceptibility, but host attractiveness will likely depend upon additional factors, such as soluble sugar content.

By: G. Fernandez* & M. Pritts*

topics (OpenAlex): Berry genetics and cultivation research; Growth and nutrition in plants; Plant Physiology and Cultivation Studies
TL;DR: Raspberry plants may rely on stored carbohydrate to mature the current crop of fruits when current photosynthate is inadequate, and this trait is characteristic of some perennial species adapted to progressively changing environments, but may not be optimal for horticultural situations where growing conditions are relatively constant from year to year.
