Basic Information

Anastrepha obliqua
Accession: ICG00117
Latin Name: Anastrepha obliqua
Common Name: West Indian fruit fly
Taxonomy ID: 95512
Description: Anastrepha obliqua, a kind of tephritid fruit flies, which is also an important agricultural pest in the New World. The use of pesticide-free methods to control invasive species such as this reinforces the search for genes potentially useful in their genetic control. The genus Anastrepha has over 235 species, most of them are endemic to the Neotropics. Only a few of these species, mostly in the fraterculus group, are agricultural pests, including Anastrepha obliqua. Because of the vast damage they inflict to several different fruit crops, they are of great economic importance, which elicit the development of several pest management strategies.
