“…Infested apple with codling moth (Cydia pomonella L.) larvae gave a high level of esters and farnescene, from first instar infested and other instars, but the amount decreased in healthy fruits [16]. [11] Similar pattern in increase of esters can be found in our findings. In addition, some compounds were presented in high concentration in non-infested apple as compare to infested fruit such as propyl isobutyrate, n-butyl 2 methylbutyrate and others and also vice versa pattern is seen where high concentration of some compounds can be seen in infested fruits as compare to non infested fruits ( Table 2).…”

“…According to [10], medfly can change the volatile compounds of the fruits. It also has been shown that chemical changes can occur within host fruit as a result of insect infestation [11]. In this research, we examined different types of fruits infested with C. capitata to determine if infested fruit give us different chemicals profiles from non-infected fruits.…”

Timely detection of Mediterranean fruit fly (Medfly) is very important so that eradication action can be taken on time. The larvae stage of this insect is the most dangerous stage as it is within the pulp of the fruit, making it hard to detect by visual inspection. In most countries at ports of entry the inspector check a small sample of fruit by visual inspection or by cutting the produce and searching for fungus and pests. This paper will investigate a quick, reliable and sensitive method to determine the presence of fruit flies. Our research focuses on developing the technology for detecting hidden infestations by using the Head Space-Soild Phase Micro Extraction (HS-SPME) method coupled with Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrocopy (GC-MS) technique. Five different types of fruit were infested with an early stage of Medfly Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann (Diptera: Tephidae). We investigated to detect the differences in volatile organic compounds (VOC's) between infested and noninfested fruits by using HS-SPME with (GC-MS). The results indicated that for few chemicals no significant differences between infested and non-infested fruit can be seen, especially in the fruits with first instar. However, in case of third instar larvae infested fruits significant differences in the chemicals can be seen as compare to non infested fruits and other instar infestations. These chemicals include ethyl (Z)-2 butenoate, 2-heptanone, anisole, β-cis-ocimene, 1,3,7-nonatriene,4,8-dimethy-,ethyl octyate, isoamyl caproate and 1β,4βh,10βh-guaia-5,11-diene, in apple. Ethyl (Z)-2-butenoate, (+)-2-bornanone, (-)-transisopiperitenol, methyl caprate, caryophyllene and farnesene in orange. Butanoic acid, 3-methyl-,2-methylbutul acetate, sabinene, β-myrcene, octanoic acid, methyl ester, dihydrocarvone, (-)-trans-isopiperitenol and ethyl laurate in mandarin. Butyl 2-methylbutanoate, terpinen-4-ol, P-menth-8-en-2-one, 155E-,(3E,7E)-4,8,12-trimethyltrideca-1,3,7,11-tetraene and dodecanoic acid, ethyl ester in lemon. Decane, 3-methyl-, p-menth-1,4(8)-diene, 1-undecene and α-cubebene in avocado. Thus, the VOC's method could provide a possible tool for detecting tephritid larvae and this method could be adopted by industries importing and exporting fruit.

“…There are at least 5 potential sources of opiine-attractive compounds: fruit, other adult foods such as honey dew or flower-nectar (e.g., acetophenone from Lobularia maritima L. in Rohrig et al 2008;Sivinski et al 2006;Sivinski et al 2011;Wang et al 2011), fruit fly larvae (e.g., para-ethylacetophenone in Stuhl et al 2011b), the by-products of fruit fly infestation and decay (e.g., fungal-derived ethanol, acetaldehyde and acetic acid in Greany et al 1977; 2-phenylethyl acetate unique to infested mango [Mangifera indica L.] in Carrasco et al 2005), and adult-host semiochemicals (e.g., Prokopy & Webster 1978;Roitberg & Lalonde 1991). It seems possible that all of these, in one combination or another, might contribute to a useful monitoring system.…”

“…Este inseto é um endoparasitoide coinobionte que oviposita no último ínstar larval de tefritídeos e completa o desenvolvimento no estágio pupal do hospedeiro (Carvalho & Nascimento, 2002). Fêmeas de D. longicaudata detectam os voláteis de frutos infestados por tefritídeos (Duan & Messing, 2000;Carrasco et al, 2005;Silva et al, 2007;Stuhl et al, 2011). Além disso, foi constatado que mesmo na ausência de larvas de moscas-das-frutas, substratos em decomposição (Silva et al, 2007;Segura et al, 2012) e a presença de fungos (Greany et al, 1977) são atrativos ao parasitoide.…”

RESUMO Diachasmimorpha longicaudata (Ashmead, 1905) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) é um dos parasitoides mais utilizados em programas de controle biológico de tefritídeos no mundo. Contudo pouco se sabe sobre a capacidade de aprendizagem e memória deste braconídeo na busca pelo hospedeiro Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann, 1830) (Diptera: Tephritidae). Neste estudo, avaliou-se o tempo de residência (TR) e o parasitismo de fêmeas de D. longicaudata oriundas de larvas de A. fraterculus criadas em dieta artificial, goiaba ou em manga e posteriormente, expostas aos odores destes frutos. Foi observada a aprendizagem de fêmeas de D. longicaudata condicionadas na fase adulta aos voláteis de óleo essencial de baunilha (OEB) e de laranja (OEL) e avaliadas, com os mesmos, em testes de quimiotaxia. Também registrou-se a memória deste parasitoide exposto ao OEB. Os insetos utilizados nos experimentos foram mantidos em câmaras climatizadas (25 ± 2 °C, 70 ± 10% UR) na fotofase de 14 h (adultos) e na escotofase (imaturos). As respostas quimiotáxicas foram registradas com olfatômetro tipo “Y” e o parasitismo (condicionamento na fase imatura), em larvas mantidas em unidades com polpa de goiaba, manga ou sem polpa (controle). Fêmeas do parasitoide criadas em larvas mantidas em dieta artificial foram expostas a OEL ou OEB por 4 h e a aprendizagem e memória (OEB) avaliadas em olfatômetro, a cada 24 h e por até 72 h. Fêmeas inexperientes de D. longicaudata foram mais atraídas para os voláteis de manga e goiaba em relação ao controle. No entanto, as experientes apresentaram TR maior para os odores dos frutos nos quais se desenvolveram. Contudo, quando os odores destes frutos foram oferecidos simultaneamente, o TR foi maior para os voláteis de manga. O percentual de parasitismo de vespas inexperientes foi maior na presença das polpas e, das experientes, nas larvas que continham os odores aos quais haviam sido condicionadas. O TR de fêmeas inexperientes foi significativamente maior para a acetona do que para os odores dos óleos. Fêmeas experientes em OEB responderam mais a este odor em relação ao controle, entretanto, não houve diferença para os experientes em OEL. A memória ao odor de OEB foi mantida por até 48 h. Concluímos que fêmeas experientes reconhecem odores aos quais se desenvolvem e aos óleos aos quais receberam experiência, resultando em preferência a estes quanto ao tempo de residência. Entretanto, reconhecer fatores que interferem na comunicação entre hospedeiro-parasitoide pode possibilitar maior adequação e confiabilidade na utilização de D. longicaudata em programas de controle biológico.
