Abstract

Yeasts play an important role in nutrition physiology and host attraction of manyDrosophilaspecies, and associations with various yeast species are documented for several drosophilid flies. The pestDrosophila suzukii(Matsumura) has a predominant association with the yeastHanseniaspora uvarum.However, research has not been conducted on the nutritional physiology of the yeasts associated withD. suzukii(spotted wing drosophila). Therefore, in this study, we determined whether dietary yeast was nutritionally relevant and whether yeast species closely associated withD. suzukiipositively affected life-history traits. Our results confirm a crucial role of dietary yeast in the larval development and survival ofD. suzukii.Furthermore, we found specific effects of the closely associated yeast speciesH. uvarumandCandidasp. on larval survival. Observations of the egg-laying behaviour ofD. suzukiion cherry fruits artificially colonised with different yeast species revealed that the number of eggs laid increased on fruits colonised withCandidasp. andSaccharomyces cerevisiae.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 13. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 20 June 2022.
All research outputs
#2,605,477
of 24,654,416 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Pest Science
#51
of 603 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#49,838
of 334,760 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Pest Science
#1
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,654,416 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 89th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 603 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 334,760 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
