“…Despite this banning, Malathion is still used in the Mediterranean area [including some EU members by some considerations in the OJEU (2015)], including Tunisia, as efficient pesticide against C. capitata. However, in some of these countries, it has been reported the presence of malathion resistant medfly populations after an increase of the number of treatments by the citrus growers (Magaña et al, 2007;Vontas et al, 2011). These results for C. capitata along with the ones presented here, which classifies Malathion as IOBC class 4 even at 7-d-post-treatment to D. longicaudata, allowed us to ask for a complete removal from the Tunisian IPM programme against the medfly.…”

“…More recently, the new European legislations regarding the use of insecticides and their tolerated residues in imported commodities (OJEU, 2009), as well as the emergence of resistance and cross resistance to many commonly used insecticides in Mediterranean populations of C. capitata forced stakeholders to review control strategies adopted against this economic pest (Magaña et al, 2007;Couso-Ferrer et al, 2011;Vontas et al, 2011;Arouri et al, 2015). As result, alternative control tactics were introduced and promoted in Tunisia including mass trapping and attract-andkill techniques leading, when properly applied, to a relative decrease in the frequency of insecticide applications (Boulahia-Kheder et al, 2012;Braham, 2013;Navarro Llopis et al, 2013;Hafsi et al, 2015).…”

Citrus agro-industry is globally harshened mainly by Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), the most worldwide destructive tephritid fruit fly species. Citrus agro-industry is one of the pillars of Tunisia economy, and by hence, harshened by this species. Tunisia has established an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programme against citrus pests, including C. capitata, that rely on the structured use of pesticides, on the application several trapping protocols, along with pilot-scale sterile insect technique program and, since 2013, with pilot-scale releases of the braconid parasitoid Diachasmimorpha longicaudata Ashmed (Hymenoptera: Braconidae). Insecticide sideeffects on parasitoids and other natural enemies are being requested for a successful implementation of biological control within any IPM programme. However, these data are almost scarce for the braconid species D. longicaudata. To this end, we have determined the side-effects of malathion, methidathion, acetamiprid, azadiractin, abamectin, deltametrin+thiacloprid and spinosad, as the most popular insecticides used in Tunisia either as fresh residues or at several aged time points, on the parasitoid D. longicaudata according the IOBC pesticide harm-classification. IOBC classification evolution of residues over time had allowed determining the best combination of pesticide applications in a structured fashion with the viable releases of D. longicaudata for the control of C. capitata in Tunisian citrus agro-ecosystems.

“…Oriental fruit flies, as well as other tephritid flies, have shown resistance against various recently used insecticides including organophosphate, pyrethroids, and spinosad. [20][21][22][23] Of the two Ca particles in our study, nano-Ca showed better performance in fertilization, plant protection, and pest control over colloidal Ca. The concentration in nano particles was only one tenth of that in the colloidal calcium.…”

Nanoparticles and nanotechnology have been applied in agriculture, including for plant nutrition improvement, and pest control. Little research has been conducted on nano-calcium carbonate in plant protection and nutrition. In this study, we compared the effects of nano-calcium carbonate and colloidal calcium carbonate and found that nano-calcium carbonate treatments were better at increasing calcium content when sprayed on Tankan (Citrus tankan) leaves. Field tests on California red scale (Aonidiella aurantii) and Oriental fruit flies (Bactrocera dorsalis) both showed that nano-calcium yielded better control rates. Moreover, bioassays of Oriental fruit flies conducted using calcium carbonate particles yielded lower LC 50 values for nano-calcium. Additionally, nano-calcium performed better in terms of protection efficacy against oviposition punctures from Oriental fruit flies on the Indian jujube. Nano-calcium yielded better overall results than colloidal calcium for fertilization, plant protection, and pest control.
