Overview

Laboratory evaluation reveals insect growth regulators effectively reduce Drosophila suzukii in cherries, suggesting safer control strategies.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate natural compounds and insect growth regulators for controlling Drosophila suzukii in cherries.
  • Laboratory evaluation of kaolin, azadirachtin, pyriproxyfen, and cyromazine in no choice and choice assays.
  • Assessment of adult offspring production and immature development in treated cherries.
  • Residue analysis of compounds in cherry pulp and exposed flies.
  • Kaolin reduced female activity and almost completely inhibited adult offspring production (96% reduction).
  • Pyriproxyfen and cyromazine achieved near-total reductions in immature development (100% and up to 99% respectively).
  • Adult offspring reduction indices were 100% for kaolin, pyriproxyfen, and cyromazine in choice assays.
