Use of micro-computed tomography to monitor damage caused by three insect pests to olive fruit

Javier Alba-Tercedor,
Ruano Francisca

Abstract: A complete three-dimensional reconstruction of the internal damage (oviposition holes, entry and exit galleries, cavities caused by fungal infection) of three destructive pests of olive fruit was obtained by micro-computed tomography. In the case of the olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae), a complete reconstruction of the galleries was obtained. The galleries were colour-coded according to the internal lumen, corresponding to the size of the larval instars. In the case of the olive moth (Prays oleae), it was co… Show more
