“…The push for these technologies came from both the continued worldwide spread of resistance to various classes of insecticides, concerns with disruption of natural control of a suite of secondary pests, and the enactments of new national and global restrictions making entire classes of insecticides unavailable for codling moth management (Kogan 1998). Attractand-kill showed some efficacy in field trials, two products were registered, and these continued to be investigated and slowly adopted for more than a decade as an alternative to sex pheromone-based mating disruption (MD) (Stará et al 2008;Somsai et al 2010;Mansour 2010). Key factors driving continued interest in this approach were the beliefs that attract-and-kill would be more useful than MD in smaller and irregular shaped orchards, and especially in these blocks near interfaces with urban development to minimize environmental externalities associated with spray runoff and drift (Lösel et al 2002;Ioriatti & Angeli 2002).…”

Field studies tested the use of lure-baited traps for female removal (FR) of codling moth, Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) in apple, Malus domestica Borkhausen, treated with sex pheromone-based mating disruption (MD-FR). Four lures were evaluated, including the combination of (E,Z)-2,4-ethyl decadienoate (pear ester, PE), (E)-4,8dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatriene (DMNT), and 6-ethenyl-2,2,6-trimethyloxan-3-ol (pyranoid linalool oxide, LOX), these three components with (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-ol (PH), and two lures loaded with PH/PE. All lures were used with a co-lure loaded with acetic acid (AA). Studies examined the importance of trap type and density on moth catches. Seventeen trials were conducted in 1-3 ha adjacent paired plots treated with or without 60 traps ha -1 in Washington State from 2018-2020. Paired plots were each treated with MD and a similar spray regime. The mating status of females in the MD-FR plots were compared with females collected from blocks not treated with MD. The PE/DMNT/LOX + AA lure caught significantly more females than any other lure. The most effective trap was a bucket trap with a green top and a clear bottom. Total or female moth catches per trap did not decline across trap densities from 37 to 99 ha -1 . MD-FR trials showed that levels of fruit injury could be significantly reduced 50-75% across each moth flight. The proportion of mated females was 8 to 19% lower in blocks treated with MD-FR than not treated with MD. Further studies are needed to refine key operational factors associated with MD-FR considering the economics of organic and conventional apple production across key varieties.

“…Integrated with insecticides, alternative methods are commonly used to control this insect (Starà et al, 2008;Odendaal et al, 2015;Arnault et al, 2016;Iraqui and Hmimina, 2016). Among these methods, mating disruption, which targets the olfactory system of C. pomonella males through the use of female sex pheromones, demonstrated efficient results to limit crop infestation (Hathaway et al, 1974;Ridgway et al, 1990;Light et al, 2001;Light, 2016).…”

Frontiers is more than just an open-access publisher of scholarly articles: it is a pioneering approach to the world of academia, radically improving the way scholarly research is managed. The grand vision of Frontiers is a world where all people have an equal opportunity to seek, share and generate knowledge. Frontiers provides immediate and permanent online open access to all its publications, but this alone is not enough to realize our grand goals. Frontiers Journal SeriesThe Frontiers Journal Series is a multi-tier and interdisciplinary set of open-access, online journals, promising a paradigm shift from the current review, selection and dissemination processes in academic publishing. All Frontiers journals are driven by researchers for researchers; therefore, they constitute a service to the scholarly community. At the same time, the Frontiers Journal Series operates on a revolutionary invention, the tiered publishing system, initially addressing specific communities of scholars, and gradually climbing up to broader public understanding, thus serving the interests of the lay society, too. Dedication to QualityEach Frontiers article is a landmark of the highest quality, thanks to genuinely collaborative interactions between authors and review editors, who include some of the world's best academicians. Research must be certified by peers before entering a stream of knowledge that may eventually reach the public -and shape society; therefore, Frontiers only applies the most rigorous and unbiased reviews. Frontiers revolutionizes research publishing by freely delivering the most outstanding research, evaluated with no bias from both the academic and social point of view. By applying the most advanced information technologies, Frontiers is catapulting scholarly publishing into a new generation. What are Frontiers Research Topics?Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject.

Current Status on the Functional Characterization of Chemosensory Receptors of Cydia pomonella (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Cydia pomonella (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is a major pest of apple, pear and walnuts. For its control, alternative strategies targeting the olfactory system, like mating disruption, have been combined with insecticide applications. The efficacy of these strategies headed the direction of efforts for the functional characterization of codling moth chemosensory receptors to implement further control methods based on chemical sensing. With the advent of transcriptomic analysis, partial and full-length coding sequences of chemosensory receptors have been identified in antennal transcriptomes of C. pomonella. Extension of partial coding sequences to full-length by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based techniques and heterologous expression in empty neurons of Drosophila melanogaster and in Human Embryonic Kidney cells allowed functional studies to investigate receptor activation and ligand binding modalities (deorphanization). Among different classes of antennal receptors, several odorant receptors of C. pomonella (CpomORs) have been characterized as binding kairomones (CpomOR3), pheromones (CpomOR6a) and compounds emitted by non-host plants (CpomOR19). Physiological and pharmacological studies of these receptors demonstrated their ionotropic properties, by forming functional channels with the co-receptor subunit of CpomOrco. Further investigations reported a novel insect transient receptor potential (TRPA5) expressed in antennae and other body parts of C. pomonella as a complex pattern of ribonucleic acid (RNA) splice-forms, with a possible involvement in sensing chemical stimuli and temperature. Investigation on chemosensory mechanisms in the codling moth has practical outcomes for the development of control strategies and it inspired novel trends to control this pest by integrating alternative methods to interfere with insect chemosensory communication.
