Irradiation dose response under hypoxia for the application of the sterile insect technique in Drosophila suzukii.
Treating insects with a lower oxygen atmosphere before and during exposure to radiation can mitigate some of the negative physiological effects due to the irradiation. The irradiation of pupae under oxygen-reduced environment such as hypoxia or anoxia is routinely used in the sterile insect techniqu...
