    • Age structure changes and extraordinary lifespan in wild medfly populations 

      Carey, J. R.; Papadopoulos, N. T.; Müller, H. G.; Katsoyannos, B. I.; Kouloussis, N. A.; Wang, J. L.; Wachter, K.; Yu, W.; Liedo, P. (2008)
      The main purpose of this study was to test the hypotheses that major changes in age structure occur in wild populations of the Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly) and that a substantial fraction of individuals survive to ...

    • Cost of reproduction in male medflies: The primacy of sexual courting in extreme longevity reduction 

      Papadopoulos, N. T.; Liedo, P.; Müller, H. G.; Wang, J. L.; Molleman, F.; Carey, J. R. (2010)
      In polygynous insect species, male reproductive success is directly related to lifetime mating success. However, the costs for males of sexual activities such as courting, signaling, and mating are largely unknown. We ...

    • Recording lifetime behavior and movement in an invertebrate model 

      Zou, S.; Liedo, P.; Altamirano-Robles, L.; Cruz-Enriquez, J.; Morice, A.; Ingram, D. K.; Kaub, K.; Papadopoulos, N.; Carey, J. R. (2011)
      Characterization of lifetime behavioral changes is essential for understanding aging and aging-related diseases. However, such studies are scarce partly due to the lack of efficient tools. Here we describe and provide proof ...

    • Trends in lipid and protein contents during medfly aging: An harmonic path to death 

      Nestel, D.; Papadopoulos, N. T.; Liedo, P.; Gonzales-Ceron, L.; Carey, J. R. (2005)
      Survival and egg-laying trends were investigated in Mediterranean fruit flies (Cerotitis corpitata) adults maintained on a sucrose-only diet, or on a full diet that consisted of a 3:1 sucrose and yeast hydrolizate mixture. ...

    • Virgin females compete for mates in the male lekking species Ceratitis capitata 

      Papadopoulos, N. T.; Carey, J. R.; Liedo, P.; MÜller, H. G.; SentÜrk, D. (2009)
      Aggressive behaviour occurring in intrasexual competition is an important trait for animal fitness. Although female intrasexual aggression is reported in several insect species, little is known about female competition and ...
