Phytosanitary Treatments AgainstBactrocera dorsalis(Diptera: Tephritidae): Current Situation and Future Prospects

Abstract: Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae) is arguably the most important tephritid attacking fruits after Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae). In 2003 it was found in Africa and quickly spread to most of the sub-Saharan part of the continent, destroying fruits and creating regulatory barriers to their export. The insect is causing new nutritional and economic losses across Africa, as well as the losses it has caused for decades in infested areas of Asia, New Guinea, and Hawaii. This… Show more

“…Treatments with heat, cold, irradiation, and fumigation with methyl bromide (MB) are frequently used to control B. dorsalis for international trade . However, heat treatment requires increasing the fruit core temperature to 46–49 °C, which can only be tolerated by a few tropical fruits, such as mango and papaya . Cold treatment requires maintaining the fruits at 0–2.2 °C for at least 12 days, and is therefore time consuiming .…”

“…4 However, heat treatment requires increasing the fruit core temperature to 46-49 ∘ C, which can only be tolerated by a few tropical fruits, such as mango and papaya. 4 Cold treatment requires maintaining the fruits at 0-2.2 ∘ C for at least 12 days, and is therefore time consuiming. 4 For phytosanitary irradiation, although its efficacy has been confirmed by several previous studies, [5][6][7] its commercial adoption was restricted by regulatory issues and slow consumer acceptance.…”

“…As a result of a major international collaborative effort (De Meyer et al., ), these latter three species are now recognized as junior synonyms of B. dorsalis (Drew & Romig, ; Schutze, Mahmood et al., ; Schutze, Aketarawong et al., ). While the synonymization clarifies taxonomic identity and helps some aspects of pre‐ and post‐harvest control and market access (Dohino et al., ; Hendrichs et al., ), they also create new challenges. An organism, whose geographic range extends from Africa, across Asia to the Pacific, might be predicted to exhibit macrogeographic population structuring (Ascunce et al., ; Gloria‐Soria et al., ; Virgilio, Delatte, Backeljau, & De Meyer, ; Zhang, Edwards, Kang, & Fuller, ).…”
