DOI: 10.1007/s10340-020-01231-9
Abstract: Insecticides used to control fruit fly pests have been implicated in negative effects on natural enemies, human health and the environment. As potential ‘softer’ insecticides, natural compounds such as essential oils and their constituents have… read more here.

Resource landscapes and movement strategy shape Queensland Fruit Fly population dynamics
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Landscape Ecology"
DOI: 10.1007/s10980-019-00910-y
Abstract: Animal population dynamics are shaped by their movement decisions in response to spatial and temporal resource availability across landscapes. The sporadic availability and diversity of resources can create highly dynamic systems. This is especially true… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jinsphys.2021.104289
Abstract: Polyandry, whereby females mate with more than one male in a reproductive cycle, can result in sperm competition or cryptic female choice, and have fitness implications for both sexes. Understanding patterns of sperm storage in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0273210
Abstract: Rectal gland volatiles are key mediators of sexual interactions in tephritid fruit flies. We used solid-phase microextraction (SPME) plus gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FID) to substantially expand rectal gland chemical… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0285099
Abstract: Divergence between populations in mating behaviour can function as a potent premating isolating mechanism and promote speciation. However, very few cases of inherited intraspecific variation in sexual signalling have been reported in tephritid fruit flies,… read more here.
