The Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata, is considered one of the most destructive pests
worldwide. The braconid Diachasmimorpha longicaudata is the most widely used parasitoid in
biological control programs of tephritids. It has been mass-reared and used in augmentative releases
against major fruit fly species in tropical and subtropical countries, and recently in the Mediterranean
Basin. After its introduction into Spain and then Tunisia, reproductive and demographic parameters
have been studied on C. capitata under laboratory conditions. These parameters were compared to
those published elsewhere. The role of artificial diet for rearing the host is discussed. Our findings
showed the good fitness of the parasitoids produced on C. capitata in laboratory with a generation time
of 28.1 days, a reproductive rate of 39.2, an intrinsic rate of increase of 0.125, a doubling time of 5.2
days and the finite rate of increase (per day) was 1. Involvements on the biological control of the
Mediterranean fruit fly in Tunisia are discussed. |
