Overview

Randomized trial compares vinegar attractants for monitoring fruit flies in berry orchards, suggesting effective pest management solutions.

Key Points

  • Evaluate the effectiveness of vinegar-based attractants for monitoring Drosophila suzukii in blackberry and blueberry orchards.
  • Compared four vinegar types: homemade grape, hawthorn, apple, and commercial apple vinegar.
  • Conducted field evaluations across southeastern Türkiye during the 2023 and 2024 growing seasons.
  • Characterized volatile profiles using headspace solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry.
  • Captured 80,571 adult Drosophila suzukii over the study duration.
  • Homemade grape vinegar yielded the highest capture rates, while commercial apple vinegar had the lowest.
  • Identified 14 volatile compounds differing among attractants, indicating varied effectiveness.
