Detection of Fruit Meals Within Laboratory-Raised and Field-Trapped Adult Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) Guts

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 9.

By: L. Kraft n, T. Sit n , L. Diepenbrock*, H. Ashrafi n , R. Aryal n, G. Fernandez n , H. Burrack n 

author keywords: spotted wing Drosophila; integrated pest management; invasive species; gut content; small fruit IPM
topics (OpenAlex): Insect behavior and control techniques; Forest Insect Ecology and Management; Insect-Plant Interactions and Control
TL;DR: Molecular methods to study adult D. suzukii gut content suggest that adult flies move between crop and non-crop habitats and may not be highly dependent on fruit food resources. (via Semantic Scholar)

Determining the Effect of Postharvest Cold Storage Treatment on the Survival of Immature Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in Small Fruits

Kraft, L. J., Yeh, D. A., Gómez, M. I., & Burrack, H. J. (2020, August 4). Journal of Economic Entomology, Vol. 113, pp. 2427–2435.

By: L. Kraft n, D. Yeh *, M. Gómez * & H. Burrack n 

author keywords: postharvest; cold storage
MeSH headings : Animals; Blueberry Plants; Drosophila; Fruit; Pupa; Rubus
topics (OpenAlex): Insect behavior and control techniques; Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect-Plant Interactions and Control
TL;DR: Using cold storage treatment is an effective postharvest management strategy for small-fruit growers to use on-farm as part of an integrated program to manage D. suzukii infestation, and an economic assessment was made to examine the profit implications of an investment in cold storage units to counter pest pressure.
