Os insetos-praga representam uma importante fonte de perdas agrícolas em todo o globo. Situação que é maximizada pela introdução de espécies fora da sua área natural de ocorrência, levando os países a elaborarem listas de quarentena a fim de proteger sua produção interna e não comprometerem suas exportações de produtos agrícolas. Nesse sentido, essa pesquisa busca revisar e analisar o potencial invasivo e riscos da Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock 1994 (Diptera:Tephritidae), importante praga da fruticultura mundial e praga quarentenária presente no Brasil. Bactrocera carambolae é uma espécie de mosca-das-frutas oriunda do sudeste asiático e que infesta uma grande diversidade de frutíferas, tanto nativas, como de interesse econômico. No Brasil, seu registro inicial é datado de 1996 no estado do Amapá, e atualmente além desse estado, foi reportada nos estados do Pará e Roraima. No país já infesta 21 hospedeiros, entre eles acerola, carambola, caju, goiaba, manga e tangerina, e apresenta potencial de adentrar mercados agrícolas importantes, como o polo de fruticultura irrigada do Vale do São Francisco. Bactrocera carambolae representa sérios riscos para a fruticultura brasileira, principalmente pela potencial exclusão de mercados para exportação de frutas. Dessa forma, ações de controle e erradicação dessa praga precisam ser mantidas e aperfeiçoadas, buscando-se evitar severos danos socioeconômicos para a cadeia produtiva de frutas no Brasil.

Effect of gamma irradiation [60Co] against Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock in vitro and in vivo. Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock is one of the most important pests on guava fruit. According to a quarantine regulation in export-import commodities, irradiation treatment is a suitable methods for eradicating infested organism, which is relatively safe for the environment. The aim of this research was to determine mortality doses and an effective dose of [60Co] gamma ray irradiation for the eradication purpose, and its implication on the survival of fruit fly B. carambolae. Two irradiation methods of in vitro dan in vivo were carried out, by exposing egg and 3rd instar larvae of B. carambolae obtained from the laboratory reared insect. Eleven doses of gamma ray irradiation of 0, 30, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 300, 450, and 600 Gy were applied, respectively. The level of 99% fruit fly mortality was estimated by the value of LD99 using probit analysis and the number of larvae, pupae and adult survival were evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA), and the means compared by Tukey’s test, at 5% of significance level. These result showed that the effective lethal dose (LD99) of irradiation that could be successful to eradicate eggs and 3rd instar larvae in vitro were 2225 and 2343 Gy and in vivo were 3165 dan 3177 Gy, respectively. Almost all of the treated larvae survived and developed to pupae, therefore only the minimum irradiation dose of 30 Gy allowed the pupae to develop into adults.

Diversity and phylogeny of fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) in South Kalimantan based on morphology and molecular (RAPD-PCR and DNA sequencing). Seven species of fruit fly was known by morphological identification. The fruit flies were found from  trapping with methyl eugenol and fruit collecting at all study sites in South Kalimantan. The results showed that as much as 17  plants were infected by fruit fly. Dendrogram based on morphological identification analyzed by using UPGMA with MEGA 4 program consisted in a group consisting of 5 sub-groups. Bactrocera carambolae and Bactrocera papayae of morphology were still a closely related fruit fly at 0.935. Whereas, based on RAPD result analized by UPGMA using 20 character of DNA based, showed that out of seven species consisted 2 groups, 1st group were B. umbrosa,  B. occipitalis and sub-group of B. latifrons. The second group consists of sub-groups B.carambolae, B. papaya, sub-group B. albistrigata and B. cucurbitae. The results of dendrogram from sequencing DNA fruit fly analysis comprised one of group and three sub-groups. The first sub-groups were B. papayae, B. carambolae, B. occipitalis, B.latifrons. The second subgroup were B. cucurbitae and B. umbrosa. While B. albistrigata separate but still one group with another fruit flies. The results of DNA sequencing showed that there were a homology of the seven species of the fruit fly i.e at 83 base pair / bp (C), 101 bp (T), 265 bp (G), 420 bp (A), 432 bp (T), 600 bp (A ). The length of the base pair for B. occipitalis, B. cucurbitae, B. albistrigata, B. carambolae, B. papayae, B. latifrons were respectively 615, 898, 570.969, 898 and 615 bp. The results of morphological analysis and RAPD methods showed difference in the distribution of groups and sub-groups. But based on morphologycal and DNA identification seven species of fruit flies found were all same as the genebank.

Bactrocera carambolae Drew & Hancock é uma espécie exótica considerada praga quarentenária presente no Brasil, com distribuição restrita aos estados de Amapá e Roraima. O conhecimento dos diferentes aspectos da sua biologia nas condições brasileiras ainda é limitado. Este trabalho teve como objetivo determinar a fecundidade e longevidade de fêmeas de B. carambolae, obtidas em dieta artificial, em condições de laboratório. O experimento foi realizado na Embrapa Amapá, onde foram selecionados 20 casais de B. carambolae recém-emergidos, da geração F3. Cada casal foi acondicionado em uma gaiola de plástico contendo dieta alimentar, água destilada e um dispositivo artificial de oviposição e mantidas em sala climatizada (26 ± 1°C, 60 ± 10% U. R. e fotofase 12 h). Diariamente era realizada a contagem dos ovos depositados em cada dispositivo. O período de sobrevivência apresentou média de 90,70 ± 9,97 dias e longevidade máxima de 150 dias. A duração média do período pré-oviposição foi 25,15 ± 3,54 dias e do período de oviposição foi 62,73 ± 7,84 dias. A fecundidade foi variável ao longo do tempo, apresentando pico de oviposição no 28º dia. O número médio de ovos por fêmea foi 1.088,26 ± 167,82. Esses resultados sugerem que B. carambolae parece utilizar a alta fecundidade e a longevidade como estratégia reprodutiva.

Abstract: Fruit flies are the main pests of fruit growing in Brazil. They have been managed predominantly with the use of insecticides applied as cover spray and or/as toxic baits. Currently, the trend of management strategies is toward the adoption of methods that cause the lowest environmental impact in large areas. In this context, biological control is an excellent option to be used together with other management strategies, such as sterile insects, because it leaves no residues, does not disturb nontarget pests, and can be permanent if the natural enemy establishes itself in the field. This review paper addresses the current knowledge on the biological control of fruit flies in Brazil, highlighting the great biodiversity of its natural enemies, especially parasitoids, its biology and ecology. The classical biological control programs in Brazil are also reported, from the introduction of Tetrastichus giffardianus (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae), in 1937, to control Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae), to that of Fopius arisanus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), in 2012, to control Bactrocera carambolae (Diptera: Tephritidae). Finally, the obtained advances are pointed out, as well as the main bottlenecks and perspectives for the effective use of biological control programs against fruit flies.
