Spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii, is a serious pest of berry fruits and grapes in East-Asia and USA. SWD female oviposits eggs into the skin of ripening fruits, and the larvae dig a burrow inside the fruits. Secondary infestation by other insects and pathogens to the oviposition spots cause substantial economic damages worldwide. SWD has recently been spreading to Europe and USA, and it is becoming a global threat in terms of biosecurity. A quite useful paper has been published in Journal of Chemical Ecology in the most recent issue (Vol. 44, #10) which is titled ‘Advances in the chemical ecology of the spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) and its applications’ written by Cloona et al. This article introduces chemical constituents from many odor sources such as fermentation, yeast, fruit, and leaf sources, and commercial lures and traps developed using these compounds. Authors said that the current food-based lures and trap technologies are not expected to be specific to SWD and thus capture large numbers of non-target drosophilids. Attractive and aversive compounds are being evaluated for monitoring, mass trapping, and for the development of attract-and-kill and push-pull techniques to manage SWD populations.
