Description

Weekly monitoring of fly oviposition on flowers and assessment of fruit damage by predispersal seed predators including fly larvae and caterpillars to quantify reproductive success and seed predation pressure.

Typical Equipment

  • collection containers

Output Measurements

  • fly eggs per flower
  • fruit abortion rate
  • seed predation damage
  • reproductive success
