Additional sources

There's a old draft at User:Damussyl/Drosophila suzukii with a number of references not included here. It's not clear whether these are legitimate sources or not. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 18:32, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified 3 external links on Drosophila suzukii. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Article Status

This article is rated as stub-class, but I think that a re-evaluation is in order. It contains some good information and though it can still use some work, it seems like a C-class article to me. (Low-importance seems about right, though). One thing that could be added is the taxonomy of how these flies are related to Drosophila melanogaster and how much they are utilized in scientific studies as compared to D. melanogaster. This page could also use some information on how this fly is controlled in agriculture, as well as information on the behavior of both adult flies and larvae.

It's definitely not stub class, so I bumped it up to C. With the invasive species aspect, it's probably more around a mid-class importance too. Kingofaces43 (talk) 18:46, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Information Added

I added a section on how the fly is controlled in agriculture by looking at different university resources. The economic information value was from 2008 so I included a citation from 2015. I was looking for a nationwide or worldwide source from 2018 or 2019 and could only find economic impact either by crop or by state. A more recent source would be beneficial to see whether the economic impact has gotten worse or has decreased. I added a state/region where SWD had been detected more recently. I could not find all of the states and the information but in general I think that it is important that it has been observed a lot of states and more as time goes on.
