“…For example, hot‐water treatment at 46.1°C for 35 min resulted in 99.9968% mortality of the Caribbean fruit fly ( Anastrepha suspensa [Loew]) in guavas ( Psidium guajava L.) (Gould, ). In Mexico, the authorized hot‐water quarantine treatment against A. ludens and A. obliqua in mango involves dipping fruits in hot water at 46.1°C for 65–90 min depending on fruit weight (Yahia, Ortega, Martinez, & Moreno, ).

“…Submerging most perishable fruits in hot water at temperatures between 43.0 and 46.7°C for 35-90 min is known to be an effective quarantine treatment for most insect pests and diseases (De La Cruz Medina & García, 2002;McGuire, 1991 (Gould, 1994). In Mexico, the authorized hot-water quarantine treatment against A. ludens and A. obliqua in mango involves dipping fruits in hot water at 46.1°C for 65-90 min depending on fruit weight (Yahia, Ortega, Martinez, & Moreno, 1999). However, protocols are in constant revision by the USDA, to reflect current knowledge and industry expectations.…”

Mango, Mangifera indica L. (Anacardiaceae), is one of the most important fruits in Africa, providing household nutrition and economic development opportunities for millions of growers across the continent. In Kenya, over 80% of mango production is carried out by smallholders who produce this crop for both the domestic and the export markets. Despite its importance, mango production is hampered by several constraints, including infestation by fruit flies, especially the exotic Bactrocera dorsalis. In addition to its direct damage to fruits, the high quarantine status of the pest restricts the export of fruits and limits access to lucrative markets, impacting negatively on export earnings. To facilitate access to export markets, post‐harvest management measures such as hot‐water treatment are required to ensure quarantine security. Internationally, this level has been set as either 99.99% (Probit 8.7) or 99.9968% (Probit 9). In developing a protocol, the development of immature life stages of B. dorsalis in ‘Apple’ mango was established. Using this information, infested mangoes harbouring the different immature life stages were subjected to a hot‐water treatment of 46.1°C for four different times, and the egg mortality and larval mortality were determined. The third‐instar life stage was the most heat tolerant, followed by second‐ and first‐instar larvae and the egg stage, respectively. The immersion time of 81.47 min (95% CL 75.77–87.18) was established as the time required to achieve 99.99% security level. In the validation experiment, there were no survivors from the 51,101 third‐instar individuals treated in ‘Apple’ mango weighing 400–500 g. Furthermore, there were no survivors from the 44,651 third instars exposed to 46.1°C for 68 min. These results provide sound evidence that the shorter treatment duration is an effective post‐harvest disinfestations treatment against B. dorsalis, and should facilitate access to export markets for mango fruits from Africa.

The hawthorn spider mite, Tetranychus viennensis, is a pest of apples and a quarantine pest from some countries that import apples from Korea. A controlled atmosphere and temperature treatment system (CATTS) was developed as an alternative disinfestation method to methyl bromide fumigation treatment, and has been applied to control various insects and other arthropod pests on fruits. We applied CATTS to disinfect T. viennensis under conditions that were previously developed to control the peach fruit moth, Carposina sasakii. First, T. viennensis was sampled from Japanese apricot, Prunus mume, and identified by its morphological characters. In addition, both cytochrome oxidase I (COI) and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences supported the morphological identification. Second, the heat-tolerant developmental stage was determined in T. viennensis. When a 46℃ heat treatment was applied to egg, nymph, and adult stages of T. viennensis, adults were the most tolerant stage. Third, when heat temperature was used along with 1% O2 and 15% CO2, the mites showed a significant increase in susceptibility to the heat treatment. Finally, CATTS at 46℃ with 15% CO2 and 1% O2 for 30 min resulted in 100% mortality of all T. viennensis development stages. These results indicated that CATTS isapplicable to disinfest T. viennensis in post-harvest apples.
