The invention relates to the technical field of
insect rearing, and specifically discloses a method for indoor propagation of
Bactrocera dorsalis. The method comprises the following steps: Bactroceradorsalis adult rearing; acquisition of
Bactrocera dorsalis eggs, namely 8-day-old in summer or 15-day-old in winter
Bactrocera dorsalis adults are used, and a culture medium is used as a
Bactrocera dorsalis spawning site;
Bactrocera dorsalis larva rearing, namely the eggs hatch into larvae in the culture medium, and the larvae feed on the culture medium; and collection of
pupa. The method of the invention is used for large-scale propagation of
Bactrocera dorsalis, is not restricted by seasons, can rapidly cultivate a large number of Bactrocera dorsalis, and provides experimental materials forthe research on
biology,
physiology and integrated pest prevention and treatment measures of Bactrocera dorsalis. In the method, the culture medium is used as the
spawning site of Bactrocera dorsalisand an egg
hatching site, and at the same time, the culture medium is also the feed for larvae, so that an egg collection step is avoided, the mechanical damage to the eggs is reduced, a
hatching rateof the eggs is improved, and thereby the purpose of propagation is achieved.
