What is the best way to distinguish accurately between winter form and summer form (morph) of Drosophila suzukii ?

25 July 2016 1 8K Report

Dear all,

We are trying to investigate some behavioural tests on the spotted-wing drosophila. Anyone knows how we can distinguish between the winter morph and the summer morph? Thanks in advance,

Best regards,

JMª Molina Rodríguez

Dear Ammar did you know these papers?

Drosophila suzukii. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jinsphys.2016.03.006

Seasonal cues induce phenotypic plasticity of Drosophila suzukii to enhance winter survival. Shearer et al., 2016. BMC Ecol (2016) 16:11 DOI 10.1186/s12898-016-0070-3

Hope it helps.
