Spotted Wing Drosophila
respiration tubes extend from the fruit but are difficult to see. Larval feeding in the fruit leads to fruit tissue collapse. Even if the fruits have not collapsed [...] exposes fruits to secondary pathogens (e.g. bacteria, fungi and yeasts). Finally, deterioration of fruit can increase its susceptibility to attack by other [...] blueberries, strawberries) and stone fruits (e.g. cherries, plums) being particularly susceptible to infestation.
