The Use of Novel Alginate Capsules in a Monitoring System for <i>Drosophila suzukii</i> in a Cherry Orchard in the Region of La Araucanía, Chile
Spotted wing drosophila (SWD) is a pest that causes damage due to the female laying eggs under the skin of ripe fruit, from which a larva emerges, causing its collapse and reducing its commercial value. Due to the importance of this pest, monitoring its population is the starting point for any contr...

| description | Spotted wing drosophila (SWD) is a pest that causes damage due to the female laying eggs under the skin of ripe fruit, from which a larva emerges, causing its collapse and reducing its commercial value. Due to the importance of this pest, monitoring its population is the starting point for any control program; however, there is no early monitoring plan within management tasks, nor are there studies on behavior, the optimization of traps, or their baits. This research proposes the evaluation of a monitoring system with encapsulated baits and adhesive traps that allow effective control. The encapsulated bait was selected after evaluating three options in olfactometric tests in the laboratory; the most attractive bait was WVM, with 70% of visits to the stimulus and 30% to its control, unlike SAG I and SAG II, whose values did not exceed 40% attraction. Among the expected results is the availability of a new format of attractive bait for SWD with a better release rate over time, and the information obtained will allow the generation of SWD population curves for the area, which is essential for decision-making. This study will contribute from the perspective of nanomaterials, insect biology, agricultural entomology, and pest monitoring. |
