We thank the Tertiary Education Commission of New Zealand for funding to H.J.P.;Stuart Gilchrist for enabling GBS alignments to the prepublication B.tryoni reference genome.This study was conducted as part of the"Phenology,demography,and distribution of Australia's fruit flies"project,funded through the Strengthening Australia's Fruit Fly System Research Program;Funding for the program is provided by the Australian Government,with contributions matched from state and territory governments.
Bactrocera tryoni and Bactrocera neohumeralis are morphologically similar sibling pest fruit fly species that possess different biological attributes,geographic distributions,and host ranges.The need to differentiate ...
This study evaluated the effectiveness of four Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approaches in the control of Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) [Diptera: Tephritidae] and Ceratitis cosyra (Walker) [Diptera: Tephritidae] dur...
One new species,Bactrocera(Bactrocera)latizona Huang,Yu&Bai sp.nov.,from Mengla,Yunnan Province,China is described.Illustrations of the new species and a key to common species of the subgenus of Bactrocera from Yunnan...

[Objective]The paper was to establish a rapid identification method of Bactrocera cilifera(Hendel)with species-specific primers(SS-COI).[Method]Using B.cilifera(Hendel)as the positive control,and 19 species of fruit f...
We estimated thermal developmental thresholds(7o)and degree-day(DD)constants for the immature stages of two tephritid pests,Bcictrocera zonata(Saunders)and Ceratitis capitata(Weidenmann).Males of both species were tra...

Bactrocera bryoniae and Bactrocera neohumeralis are highly destructive and major biosecurity/quarantine pests of fruit and vegetable in the tropical and subtropical regions in the South Pacific and Australia.Although ...
Fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) are one of the insect groups that menace the horticultural sector in sub Saharan Africa. The main fruit fly species that caused mango fruits (Mangifera indica L.) damage in Western B...
Accurate species-level identifications underpin many aspects of basic and applied biology;however,identifications can be hampered by a lack of discriminating morphological characters,taxonomic expertise or time.Molecu...
