Many model organisms have been used in the classroom. The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, is the most obvious organism used in teaching. It is often used for students to learn Mendelian genetics. E. coli, yeast, and Rana pipiens are also popular model organisms in biology education.
The Mexican fruit fly, Anastrepha ludens (Loew), is a very serious pest of various fruits, particularly citrus and mango, in Mexico and Central America. Its natural distribution includes the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, where populations routinely attain pest status if control measures are not practiced. Mexican fruit fly infestation is not readily controlled on a small scale, such as by homeowners. Egg and larval stages inside the fruit are safe from insecticidal treatments. The adult stage is susceptible to control, usually by a short-lived bait comprised of a contact insecticide mixed with protein and carbohydrate.
