A Penn State Extension Article on SWD Natural History summaries and references

We sampled a range of peach varieties maturing at different dates throughout
the season last year. Although we did see one sample with a single adult SWD
emerge from incubated sound fruit held for two weeks, we didn't see what we
would consider to be economic injury, again the caveat being,
Are there any clues from temperature effects on egg laying? I read that the swd
has preference, thus the need for trap location in shade. Do they oviposit
daytime or night?
