Potential of a fly gut microbiota incorporated gel-based larval diet for rearing Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel)

Abstract: BackgroundThe Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae), is an important polyphagous pest of horticultural produce. The sterile insect technique (SIT) is a proven control method against many insect pests, including fruit flies, under area-wide pest management programs. High quality mass-rearing process and the cost-effective production of sterile target species are important for SIT. Irradiation is reported to cause severe damage to the symbiotic community structure in the mid gut… Show more

“…Transstadial persistence of various gut bacteria has been demonstrated in B. dorsalis [ 44 , 59 , 60 ]. Following the significant reduced survival and the relative improved survival between day 4 and 7 of adult flies exposed to M. anisopliae for the L. lactis and P. alcalifaciens inoculated B. dorsalis lines respectively, we evaluated the persistence of the re-introduced bacteria, at the adult stage.…”
