Abstract After its initial discovery in California 2008, Drosophila suzukii Matsumura has become one of the most important invasive agricultural pest insects across climate zones much Asia, Europe, North America, and South America. Populations D. have demonstrated notable behavioral physiological plasticity, adapting to diverse environmental climatic conditions, interspecific competition, novel food sources, potential predators. This adaptability plasticity enabled rapid range expansion diversified niche use by suzukii, making it a species particularly suited changing habitats conditions. article reviews factors evidence that influence promotes this species’ invasiveness.

Nutritional geometry and fitness consequences in Drosophila suzukii, the Spotted‐Wing Drosophila

Ecology and Evolution, Год журнала: 2018, Номер 8(5), С. 2842 - 2851

Abstract Since its arrival to North America less than a decade ago, the invasive Spotted‐Wing Drosophila ( suzukii ) has inflicted substantial economic losses on soft fruit agriculture due ability oviposit into ripening fruits. More effective management approaches for this species are needed, but little is known about factors that influence behavioral choices made by D. when selecting hosts, or consequences their offspring experience developing in different environments. Using nutritional geometry methodology, we found ratio of proteins‐to‐carbohydrates (P:C) present media greatly influenced adult behavior and subsequent development. Whereas flies showed strong bias oviposition association behaviors toward carbohydrate‐rich foods, larval survival eclosion rate were strongly dependent protein availability. Here, explore preference–performance hypothesis (PPH), which females predicted medias provide greatest benefits, regard relevance management. Our results valuable insight ecology evolution may hopefully lead more strategies.

Worldwide monitoring programs of the invasive fruit pest Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae), using fermentation baits like apple cider vinegar (ACV), revealed a counterintuitive period low trap catches during summer, followed by an autumn peak. In this study, we demonstrate that ACV baited traps indeed provide distorted image D. population dynamics as it is possible to capture higher numbers "low period" with synthetic lures. It was hypothesised preference populations for cues most pronounced autumn, winter and spring, while flies prefer fresh summer seasonal related changing physiology over season. To test hypothesis, between (ACV) host fruits (strawberries) effect (sex, morphology feeding, mating reproductive status) investigated both in olfactometer laboratory experiments year-round field experiment. demonstrated protein deprived females, virgin females full complement unfertilised eggs males show strong fully fed morph generally cues.

Abstract A better understanding of the factors affecting host plant use by spotted-wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) could aid in development efficient management tools and practices to control this pest. Here, proxies both preference (maternal oviposition behavior) performance (adult emergence) were evaluated for 12 different fruits form purees. The effect chemical composition on traits was then estimated. We synthesized literature interpret our findings light previous studies that measured larval D. suzukii. show fruit identity influences parts life cycle, including under choice no-choice conditions, emergence rate, time, number emerging adults. Blackcurrant always among most preferred we used, while grape tomato least fruits. Larvae performed cranberry, raspberry, strawberry, cherry than other tested. found compounds can explain part suzukii traits. In particular, conditions strongly influenced phosphorus content. general, consensus across is blackberry, strawberry are best hosts blackcurrant, rose hips poor hosts.

Differential Impacts of Yeasts on Feeding Behavior and Development in Larval Drosophila suzukii (Diptera:Drosophilidae)

Scientific Reports, Год журнала: 2019, Номер 9(1)

Abstract Larval Drosophila encounter and feed on a diverse microbial community within fruit. In particular, free-living yeast microbes provide source of dietary protein critical for development. However, successional changes to the fruit may alter host quality through impacts relative content or composition. For many species , fitness benefits from feeding vary between individual species, indicating differences in nutritional quality. To better understand these associations, we evaluated how five impacted preference development larval suzukii . Larvae exhibited strong attraction Hanseniaspora uvarum pairwise assays. larvae also performed most poorly diets containing H. mismatch performance that suggests are not primary factor driving behavior. Together, results demonstrate plays role D. ’s ecology have developed specific associations. Further inquiry, including systematic comparisons associations more broadly, will be necessary patterns resource use other frugivorous species.

Following the concept of holobiont, insect-microbiota interactions play an important role in insect biology. Many examples host-associated microorganisms have been reported to drastically influence biological processes such as development, physiology, nutrition, survival, immunity, or even vector competence. While a huge number studies on insect-associated microbiota focused bacteria, other microbial partners including fungi comparatively neglected. Yeasts, which establish mostly commensal symbiotic relationships with their host, can dominate mycobiota certain insects. This review presents key advances and progress research field highlighting diversity yeast communities associated insects, well impact life-history traits, behavior.

Factors influencing oviposition behaviour of the invasive pest, Drosophila suzukii, derived from interactions with other Drosophila species: potential applications for control

Pest Management Science, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 79(11), С. 4132 - 4139

Опубликована: Июль 30, 2023

Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) or spotted wing is a worldwide invasive pest of soft- and stone-fruit production. Female D. lay their eggs in ripening fruit the hatched larvae damage from inside, rendering it unmarketable causing significant economic loss. Current methods to reduce population field primarily rely on chemical insecticides which are not sustainable long-term solution increase risk resistance developing. Several studies demonstrate that when encounter coexist with other food source, this usually disadvantage suzukii, leading reduced oviposition increased larval mortality. These effects have potential be exploited management perspective. In review we summarise recent research articles focusing interspecific interactions between species aimed at understanding how drives behaviour. Potential semiochemical microbiome impacts postulated as determinants Development control practices reducing populations deterring them laying by utilising factors drive behaviour discussed. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract Chemical control of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) based on the use insecticides is particularly challenging as insect attacks ripening fruits shortly before harvest. An alternative strategy may rely yeasts phagostimulants and baits, applied canopy attract-and-kill formulations. The aim this research was to identify most attractive among six yeast species for D. : Saccharomyces cerevisiae , Hanseniaspora uvarum Clavispora santaluciae Saccharomycopsis vini Issatchenkia terricola Metschnikowia pulcherrima . volatile profile C described first time. Behavioural experiments identified H. S. yeasts. characterization headspace volatiles using direct (DHS) solid-phase microextraction (SPME) revealed several strain-specific compounds. With DHS injection, 19 were characterised, while SPME 71 compounds constituting headspace. Both analyses terpenoids including β-ocimene, citronellol, ( Z )-geraniol (nerol), geranial distinct constituents further investigated closed-loop stripping analysis (CSLA) electroantennography. Out 14 quantified by CSLA, ethyl acetate, isoamyl β-myrcene, benzaldehyde linalool detected antennae might generate strong attractiveness uvarum. Our results highlight a attraction various associated with both flies their habitat demonstrate how different sampling methods can impact compound characterization. It remains be demonstrated whether special adaptations certain what extent metabolites causing are interchangeable.
