| Abstract | Quality parameters at the Camden sterile fruit fly production facility during the 1997/98 season were examined, particularly in their relationship with pupal weight. Percent emergence was positively related to pupal weight while lifespan was negatively related. There was no relationship between flight ability and pupal weight. The Flight Ability Index was adversely affected by irradiation. These results were compared with field reports and overseas information, which largely agreed with the facility data. The possible impact on sterile release programs is discussed. |
