“…The oriental fruit moth, Grapholita molesta (Busck; Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), a major pest of Rosaceae fruit trees, is widely distributed throughout the fruit-growing regions of Asia, Europe, America, Australia, and Africa ( Dorn et al, 2003 ; Bellerose et al, 2007 ; Myers et al, 2007 ; Timm et al, 2008 ; Kirk et al, 2013 ). In China, it occurs in most of the fruit-growing regions except Tibet and can harm apple, pear, jujube, peach, plum, apricot, hawthorn, and other fruit trees by boring and feeding in twigs and fruits at larval stage, resulting in shoot dieback and fruit shedding ( Myers et al, 2006 ; Cao et al, 2015 ; Duarte et al, 2015 ; Tian et al, 2019 ). G. molesta undergoes multiple generations in a year and has the habit of host switching, which cause serious economic losses to the fruit industry every year ( Zheng et al, 2015 ).…”
