Infestation of fruit fly, <i>Bactrocera</i> (Diptera: Tephritidae) on mango (<i>Mangifera indica</i> L.) in peninsular Malaysia

Abstract: A survey was carried out in mango orchards the infestation levels of fruit fly indica L.) through damaged fruit fruits: Bactrocera dorsalis Bactrocera dorsalis was recorded carambolae (9%). The highest fruit infestation pupae/kg), followed by Bukit Changgang (36.08±8.35 pupae/k ±4.86 pupae/kg) whilst Jitra showed the lowest

“…The population of B. dorsalis dominated and had become a major pest of the mango trees, while the abundance of B. carambolae was lower than that of B. dorsalis. These results were consistent with other studies in Asia and Africa because B. dorsalis is a cosmopolitan species and it is a major pest of mangoes causing serious production losses (Salmah et al, 2017;Yin et al, 2018;Hossain et al, 2020;Patel et al, 2019;Jayanthi et al, 2021).…”

“…The genus contains approximately 40 species of important pests including Bactrocera dorsalis (the oriental fruit fly) and B. carambolae (the carambola fruit fly), with both species being among the most economically important pest species, attacking many host fruits in tropical and subtropical regions in the world (Salmah et al, 2017;Jayanthi et al, 2021). B. dorsalis is the main polyphagous fruit fly that infests more than 300 hosts and is widely distributed in both the Asia-Pacific and Africa (Vargas et al, 2015;Vayssières et al, 2015;Salmah et al, 2017), whereas, B. carambolae has a distribution area in a narrower range in Southeast Asia and has recently been introduced to South America (Win et al, 2014;Vargas et al, 2015;Marchioro, 2016;Leblanc et al, 2019). Most of the recent studies on B. carambolae have been reported in Brazil and other South American countries, because the star fruit fly invasion of this region can lead to serious economic losses (Marchioro, 2016;Midgarden et al, 2016).…”

“…As fêmeas de Bactrocera carambolae ovipositam os frutos ainda verdes, criando cavidades nas quais colocam seus ovos (Malavasi et al, 2013). Em um período de 1 a 2 dias, os ovos eclodem e as larvas começam a se alimentar da polpa dos frutos, que além de gerar a sua degradação, deixam os frutos expostos a entrada de fungos e bactérias; como resultado, os frutos perdem a firmeza e se tornam aquosos, apodrecendo e caindo ao chão antes do período da colheita (Salmah et al, 2017).…”

“…Sem a adoção do devido controle, os danos diretos ocasionados por Bactrocera carambolae podem levar à perda de rendimento entre 90 a 100%, e são dependentes da população de mosca-da-carambola presente, da estação do ano e da variedade e localização do hospedeiro (Salmah et al, 2017). Além do declínio na produção, a presença de B. carambolae em uma região implica em dificuldades das frutas produzidas serem aceitas no mercado internacional, uma vez que essa espécie é uma praga quarentenária em diversos países, o que leva a imposição de fortes barreiras fitossanitárias (Vargas et al, 2015;Jesus-Barros et al, 2017).…”
