“…In future research, whole genome resequencing (WGRS) technology will show strong advantages. This technique has been applied to the genetic structure research of fruit fly populations (Zhang et al 2022). Compared to the limited molecular markers currently used, WGRS can be used to screen among millions of SNPs to effectively distinguish the loci of the 4 species of the Ceratitis FARQ complex and design primers based on the screened SNPs to achieve accurate identification of the Ceratitis FARQ complex.…”

Ceratitis is an economically important genus of fruit flies that originated in Africa, has a wide host range, and causes serious economic losses due to its invasive damage. As a result, it is critical to identify them accurately and quickly in the world. Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), as one of the representatives of isothermal amplification technology, has been widely used in the rapid nucleic acid detection of human pathogens and has shown its advantages in the identification of insect agricultural pests. In this study, using the mitochondrial cox1 and cob genes as target genes, the rapid molecular identification of the Ceratitis FARQ complex, C. cosyra, and C. capitata was realized based on LAMP. The experimental conditions optimization results showed that F3/B3:FIP/BIP = 1:8 was the optimal primer concentration ratio and 63 °C was the optimal reaction temperature. The sensitivity of the primers obtained in this study can reach up to 0.01 ng/μl DNA. A loop-mediated isothermal amplification identification technology system was established based on rapid, rough DNA extraction and visual detection of Ceratitis economically important fruit flies. The positive reaction system changed from pink to khaki by visual detection. The identification flow can be completed within 1 hour, including sample processing, DNA extraction, and LAMP visual detection.

“…Species from different habitat types in China have also exhibited diverse responses to late Pleistocene climate change. For example, some species underwent expansion during the cooling transition from the Last Interglacial to the LGM ( Microvelia douglasi douglasi , Ye et al, 2014; Halyomorpha halys , Zhu et al, 2016; Matrona basilaris , Xue et al, 2019); however, some contracted during the glacial period ( Hyla annectans , Wei et al, 2020; Aquarius paludum , Ye et al, 2022; Bactrocera dorsalis , Zhang et al, 2022), which may be because of the climatic shift (cold and dry) that occurred at the beginning of the LGM (Clark et al, 2009; Gasse, 2000). In this study, four lines of evidence (haplotype network characteristics and demographic history inference) indicate a recent rapid expansion in the P. horticola population size.…”

“…Contemporary patterns of genetic variations in a species across different geographic areas are affected by historical factors (Avise, 2000;Hewitt, 2004). Past climatic changes, particularly during the late Pleistocene, have been important drivers of variations in genetic structure, demographic fluctuations and the current distributions of many extant species (Hewitt, 2000(Hewitt, , 2004Ye et al, 2014Ye et al, , 2022Zhang et al, 2022). Geological events such as the formation of mountain systems can generate physical barriers to dispersal, resulting in population differentiation and speciation (Che et al, 2010;Jiang et al, 2022;Zhu et al, 2022).…”

“…Population genetics has been used to understand patterns of genetic variation, such as genetic diversity, population structure and population responses to past climate change (Fedorov et al, 2020;Jiang et al, 2022;Ye et al, 2014Ye et al, , 2022Zhang et al, 2022). The characteristics of mitochondrial DNA, including maternal inheritance, moderate evolutionary rates, clear evolutionary patterns and nearly neutral evolution, make it suitable for studying population-level evolutionary patterns (Avise et al, 1987;Barraclough & Nee, 2001); thus, it has been widely used as a molecular marker in population genetic studies of insects and other fauna (Drahun et al, 2021;Jiang et al, 2022;Pérez-Alquicira et al, 2019;Sun et al, 2022;Ye et al, 2022).…”

AimResearch on population genetic patterns and potential distribution dynamics can provide insights into the development of pest management strategies. Herein, we integrated population genetic analyses with the climatic niche approach to investigate spatial population genetic variations and potential geographical distribution (PGD) of the herbivorous pest Phytomyza horticola. We also analysed its population response patterns to both late Pleistocene climatic events and future climate change.LocationChina.MethodsWe analysed the patterns of genetic diversity distribution in 29 populations from 19 regions across China using three mitochondrial (COI, COII and Cytb) genes as markers. We estimated demographic histories using neutrality tests, mismatch distributions and Bayesian skyline plots. Changes in PGD were assessed using an ecological niche model.ResultsHigh genetic diversity was found in most populations, and the northern population exhibited higher haplotype diversity. The population genetic structure included the Tibet lineage and a large lineage comprising the remaining populations. Demographic analyses indicated that rapid population expansion occurred during the cold Last Glacial Maximum. In addition, our projections suggested that P. horticola currently has a vast PGD in China, for which the human influence index was the strongest variable. Large areas of cold northern regions were highly suitable for its survival. Under future global warming, highly suitable habitats will shift towards the higher latitudes.Main conclusionsP. horticola is widely distributed across varied environments, which may be attributed to its high degree of genetic variation. Human activities likely facilitated the current PGD and the frequent gene flow that homogenized differentiation among most populations. In addition, P. horticola exhibits strong adaptability to cold climates and environments from the past to the future. Considering future climatic changes, prevention and control should focus on high‐latitude regions, and vigilance regarding human‐mediated pest dispersals and outbreaks should be maintained.

“…The Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) belongs to the order Diptera , family Tephritidae , and is a key polyphagous pest that causes economic productive loss of vegetable and fruit crops throughout the world owing to its wide host range, high reproductive rate, overlapping generations, invasiveness and adaptability to climate (Clarke et al., 2005; Pablo et al., 2022; White & Elson‐Harris, 1992; Yue, Li, et al., 2023; Yue, Liu, et al., 2023). Guava, a key fruit crop of India reported up to 100% fruit damage by B. dorsalis during monsoon (Singh & Sharma, 2013).…”

The Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) is one of the five disastrous pests in the world with an economical significance. The guava germplasm resilient to fruit fly is not reported worldwide to date. The utilization of RNA interference (RNAi) approach can offer a promising alternative for fruit fly management in guava. The goal of our investigation is to evaluate the efficiency of dsRNA expression based on Escherichia coli used in B. dorsalis management by addressing its two indispensable genes, fatty acid elongase (NOA) and Vacuolar‐type H+‐ATPases D (v‐ATPase D). An artificial diet having E. coli strain HT115 (DE3) containing BdNOA, Bdv‐ATPase D dsRNA fed to maggots resulted in deformities with drastic mortality in treated adults, emerged pupae and maggots. The deformity together with total mortality in B. dorsalis was recorded at maximum as 74.66% and 64.20% in bacteria expressing dsRNAs of BdNOA and Bdv‐ATPase D, respectively, at 700 μL as compared to 350, 200 μL treatments. Severe deformities were reported such as underdeveloped abdomen, absence of wings, legs and inadequate eclosion along with suppressed target gene expression in B. dorsalis. This investigation thus provides a potential RNAi‐based pest management by targeting two key genes through feeding dsRNA‐expressing bacteria in B. dorsalis.
