Use of \kur{Notch} gene for the production of genetic "sexing" lines of codling moth.
 ŠVELLEROVÁ, Hana
The codling moth, Cydia pomonella, is the key pest of pome fruit and walnut orchards in the temperate regions of the world. The extensive use of insecticides for a control of this pest has resulted in the development of resistance to these chemicals, and there is an increasing demand on the use of environment-friendly control tactics, such as the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT). Codling moth SIT relies on the mass rearing and release of genetically sterile both males and females into a wild population. However, male-only releases could significantly reduce costs of the mass rearing and increase SIT efficiency. In this thesis I focused on the use of a temperature-sensitive mutant allele of the Notch gene for production of genetic "sexing" lines of codling moth.
