“…The results obtained showed that PFF and MFF were recorded in navel orange orchard approximately all over the fruiting seasons. Similar findings were reported earlier (Amin, 2003(Amin, , 2008Bayoumy et al, 2021;Ghanim, 2012Ghanim, , 2016Ghanim, , 2017Ghanim & Moustafa, 2009;Ghanim et al, 2018;Moustafa et al, 2014). These workers reported that PFF and MFF were observed during the whole fruiting seasons of several fruit host plants.…”

Arab Journal of Plant Protection, 41(2): 98-104. https://doi.org/10.22268/AJPP-041.2.098104 The peach fruit fly (PFF), Bactrocera zonata (Saunders) and the Mediterranean fruit fly (MFF), Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) are of the most major pests infesting citrus orchards in Egypt as well as several countries of the world. The present study was carried out to study the seasonal activity of PFF and MFF in navel orange orchards located in Dakahlia governorate, Egypt during two successive fruiting seasons of 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 by using sex attractants and fruit samples. The results obtained showed that, by using sex attractants, PFF males had two peaks each season, whereas MFF showed one to two peaks. By monitoring fruit samples, PFF exhibited one to two peaks of activity seasonally in the non-fallen and fallen fruits; whereas MFF exhibited two to three peaks on the non-fallen and fallen fruits. Both PFF and MFF were more abundant in the fallen fruits than in the non-fallen fruits. The relationships between flies trapped per day (FTD) of PFF and MFF males in Jackson traps and infestation rate of these pests showed that these traps can be used to predict infestation rates of PFF and MFF in their host fruits.

“…Obtained results were agreement with results obtained by Manrakhan and Price (2000) who indicated to that fruits existence and temperature degree had highly significant effect on the population fluctuation of C. capitata insect on mango fruits. Amin (2008) indicated to that certain weather factors were appearance during critical temperature period particularly during winter months in which population of C. capitata reduced to its minimum numbers.…”

Population fluctuation of Mediterranean-fruit-fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) on different fruit varieties (three-varieties); mango, pomegranate and navel-orange were studied in seasons 2021/2022 at Borg El-Arab, Alexandria. C. capitata has two-peaks on mid-July and beginning of third-week of August for mango. In pomegranate-variety there were two-peaks at third-week of August and second-peak at end-September. Whereas, navel-orange varieties found one-peak at third-week of October recorded of two-tested seasons, respectively. Statistically analysis showed, weather factors and fruits ripping-stage were highly-significant differences (73.4 and 73.9%), (69.6 and 72.2%) and (82.9 and 80.7%) on C. capitata population in testedvarieties during two-season compared-with different weather factors. Simple-correlation on second season 2022 between maximum-temperature and CTD on C. capitata was highly significant differences in mango tested. Whereas pomegranate-variety, was insignificant between max-temperature and CTD of C. capitata during two-seasons, in navel-orange was negative-insignificant during two-seasons. Minimum-temperatures and CTD-number of C. capitata were insignificant during two-seasons for mango-variety. In pomegranate were in-significant during two-seasons. While were negative-insignificant for navel-orange. Simple-correlation on two-seasons between relative-humidity for fruit-varieties were highly-significant except mango in first-season was insignificant. Statistical-analysis for three-varieties and different inspections during two-seasons, showed, first-season was highly-significant more-than second-season. Regarding mango-varieties was high more-than pomegranate and navel-orange were mean of mango (5.64) while, no-difference between pomegranate and navel-orange means were (3.45 and 4.04), respectively. Regarding varieties in two-seasons, mango was high more-than navel-orange and pomegranate (132.7 & 93.2) for mango; (101.1 & 68.7) for navel-orange and (78.3 & 53.1) for pomegranate in two-seasons.
