The overall goal of this procedure is to deliver nucleic acids into the embryos of Ceratitis Capitata, an important agricultural pest, to ultimately expand the toolbox for its control. This method helps functionally correctorize genes in an immobi

The Mediterranean fruit fly (medfly) Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae) is a worldwide pest of agriculture. A deeper understanding of its biology is key to control medfly populations and thus reduce economic impact. Embryo microinjection is a fundamental tool allowing both germ-line transformation and reverse genetics studies in this species.
