“…Adults received water and artificial diet daily (Zucoloto et al 1979). Adult food was composed of: 6.5 g of beer yeast (Mãe-Terra), 11 g of sugar (União), 2 g of agar (Isofar), 1 g of citric acid (Vetec), 1 g of Nipagin (Isofar) and 100 ml of distilled water.…”

Influência da Proteína no Comportamento de Alimentação de Ceratitis capitata Wiedemann (Diptera:Tephritidae): Comparação Entre Fêmeas e Machos Imaturos RESUMO -O objetivo deste trabalho foi comparar a influência da proteína na performance e no comportamento alimentar de fêmeas e machos imaturos de Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann). A fonte de proteína utilizada foi a levedura de cerveja nas concentrações de 6,5 g e 1,5 g por 100ml de água. Foi avaliada a influência da proteína nos seguintes parâmetros: porcentagem de emergência, duração do ciclo de vida, tamanho do adulto, consumo de dietas, seleção de dietas e limiar de discriminação para a levedura. Os resultados indicaram que na fase imatura machos e fêmeas apresentam exigência protéica similar para performance adequada. Ambos sexos apresentaram comportamento alimentar semelhante, escolhendo sempre dietas contendo maior quantidade de proteína. O limiar de discriminação para a levedura nos imaturos de ambos os sexos foi 0,4 g/100 ml de água. Com base nos resultados aqui apresentados, é possível inferir que os machos de C. capitata apresentam exigência protéica similar à das fêmeas em sua fase imatura. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Dimorfismo sexual de tamanho, mosca-das-frutas, comportamento alimentarABSTRACT -The objective of this work was to compare the influence of dietary protein on performance and feeding behavior of immature males and females of Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann). The protein source was beer yeast at 6.5 and 1.5 g.100 ml -1 . The following parameters were evaluated: percentage of emergence, total life cycle, adult size, diet consumption, feeding preference and discrimination threshold for yeast. Immature adults showed similar protein requirements regardless of sex. Both males and females showed similar feeding behavior, preferring to feed on the diet with higher protein content. The discrimination threshold for levedure in both sexes was 0.4 g.100 ml -1 . We concluded that immature males of C. capitata show similar protein requirements as the immature females.

“…The first consisted of a suitable protein content, as described above (denominated as Diet 6.5 g). The second contained only the minimum necessary as to fulfill protein requirements to larval development (1.5 g yeast/ 100 ml water) (Zucoloto et al 1979), denominated Diet 1.5 g.…”

“…Diariamente, colocava-se água e solução de sacarose e a cada dois dias introduzia-se uma dieta artificial contendo 6,5g de lêvedo de cerveja, 11g de açúcar, 2g de ágar-ágar, 1g de ácido cítrico, 1ml de nipagin e 100 ml de água destilada (ZUCOLOTO et al, 1979). As gaiolas foram mantidas em temperatura variável de 25-30°C, recebendo iluminação durante 10 horas diárias para estimular a oviposição das fêmeas.…”

ABSTRACT. Acceptance and preference of fruits for oviposition in two Ceratitis capitata (Diptera, Tephritidae) populations. The influence of four host fruits, orange (Citrus sinensis L.), papaya (Carica papaya L.), mango (Mangifera indica L.) and apple (Malus domestica Borkh) on oviposition behavior of Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann, 1824) was evaluated. Experiments were carried out on two C. capitata laboratory-reared populations: one with artificial diet for 10 years with periodic introduction of wild flies and other reared with artificial diet for 20 years without wild flies introduction. In acceptance experiments two pieces of a single fruit type were exposed to a group of 10 females; after 48 hours, these were changed by two new pieces of the same fruit type, and, in the end of the fourth day, the experiments were concluded. In preference experiments, two pieces of different fruits were offered to the females. These experiments were driven under the same conditions of the acceptance ones. Acceptance and preference experiments for both populations showed the following choice hierarchy: papaya > mango > orange > apple. The acceptance experiments showed no differences in the number of eggs/female/day laid in the first 48 hours and in the last 48 hours of the experiments. The amount of eggs in the two pieces of fruits offered to the females was similar. In spite of the two populations present similar behavior in relation to host hierarchy, the number of laid eggs was different, being larger for the population reared without wild flies introduction.

Using artificial solid diets, experiments were performed with Anastrepha obliqua (Macquart, 1835) wild females in order to verify the influence of different quantities of brewer yeast on the performance and compensation behavior to unbalanced diets ingestion. The observed parameters were egg production, ingestion, diet efficiency and survival in the reproductive phase. Results indicated that there was no compensatory ingestion to different quantities of yeast and that the diet with 12.5g of yeast provided the best performance. The absence of compensatory ingestion is discussed based on the yeast phagostimulation and on the costs involved in solid diets ingestion. The relation between the analyzed parameters and the protein quantities in the diet were discussed.
