1 Spotted wing drosophila in North Carolina 2013 Update Hannah Joy Burrack Jesse Hardin Katherine Swoboda Dylan Kraus Doug McPhie Department of Entomology

2 North Carolina host crops 2013 Impacts Significant infestation in caneberries (sprayed or unsprayed). Blueberry infestation developed post harvest for southern highbush but was common during rabbiteye harvest & in processing fruit. No reported infestation in commercially grown spring fruiting strawberries. Large infestation in research station plots. Soft fruit reported in day neutrals, SWD confirmed. No reported infestation in commercially grown grapes. Grape berry moth damaged muscadines colonized by other Drosophilidae.
