Abstract:Both the peach fruit fly, Bactrocera zonata (Saunders), and the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), attack a wide variety of tree fruits worldwide. Exporting fruit hosts of these pests from countries where they are endemic to those where they are absent but may spread requires phytosanitary treatments. This research is to determine if C. capitata and B. zonata could be phytosanitary controlled by ozone treatment schedules. Moreover, elucidates the efficiency of ozone application in control… Show more
