Yeasts Influence Host Selection and Larval Fitness in Two Frugivorous Carpophilus Beetle Species
Abstract
We explored how gut-associated yeasts influence olfactory behaviour and resource use in two pest species of Carpophilus beetle that co-exist in Australian stone fruits. Molecular analysis of yeasts isolated from the gut of C. davidsoni (prefers ripe fruits) and C. hemipterus (prefers overripe and rotting fruits) revealed that the predominant species were Pichia kluyveri and Hanseniaspora guilliermondii. In olfactory attraction and oviposition...
