“…Therefore, MAT has been widely used as a mass trapping method in the area-wide suppression of populations in different pest species of fruit flies as well as other insects (El-Sayed et al, 2006). For example, since it was first applied successfully for the control of the oriental fruit fly on Rota Island in 1963 (Steiner et al, 1965), the male annihilation method was used alone or in combination with other control measures for the eradication or population suppression of different species of tephritid fruit flies under different circumstances (Koyama et al, 1984;Stonehouse et al, 2007;Orankanok et al, 2007;Vargas et al, 2008;Huang et al, 2008). In particular, the MAT used in the Central Burnett district was based on the distribution of carriers dosed with cue-lure and malathion insecticide.…”

“…Farmers who cultivate crops with high economic value and low pest tolerance risk suffer greater losses than farmers who cultivate crops with a low economic value and high pest tolerance (Yu and Leung 2006). In the latter situation there are fewer incentives for farmers to cooperate through an Area wide approach, whereas in first case the economic advantages of participating in Area wide approach are much greater (Stonehouse et al, 2007). This is particularly so for crops such as vegetables and fruit, or for some livestock or human diseases, where the acceptable threshold are so low that the presence of even a few pest or vector individuals often triggers the need for remedial applications (Vreysen et al, 2007).…”

Guava is a popular fruit crop of tropical India, which is a rich source of vitamin C and has many medicinal properties. Guava has 2-3 crops in a year according to climatic and genetic condition of variety. It is a crop which gives high yield but due to damages of fruit fly, quality and quantity of fruits becomes poor. Infestation of fruit fly in India is high during rainy season which causes low demand by consumers. Among all the fruit flies, Bactrocera fruit fly damage fruit quality and quantity of guava crop most and gives significant worth losses. It is very challenging to manage fruit flies due to their adaptation to several regions, wide range of host and biology. New research and techniques are developing day by day but those are insufficient for their control. This review is focused on Bactrocera species which are more damaging in respect to guava orchards of India. Therefore, new methods for controlling the infestation of fruit fly in fruit crops are introduced. The potential of these methods is immense for commercial exploitation. The paper attempt to document the accomplishment made in guava fruit improvement in perspective to Indian conditions. The information is valuable for farmers and academician for further studies.
