The products of this sector can be attacked by parasites, which can cause direct and indirect damage. Piophila casei (L.) (Diptera: Piophilidae) a cheese and meat parasite, is currently responsible for hygiene problems in ham factories. The trophic activity of this pest on the products causes serious direct damage and it is a vector of various bacteria, including Clostridium botulinum. Another risk is human ingestion of the larvae, which are resistant to gastric juices action, potentially causing intestinal myiasis. Insecticide use of any type is not allowed in aging rooms, so biological control can represent a potential alternative. In this study, we investigate quality parameters such as successful rate of parasitism (SP), degree of parasitism (DP), sex-ratio (SR), life-span (LS), and emergence rates (ER) of 2 pupal parasitoids of Diptera: Pachycrepoideus vindemiae (Rondani) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae), currently the only known pupal parasitoid of P. casei, and Muscidifurax raptor (Girault and Sanders) (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae). Our research confirmed P. vindemiae efficacy to parasitize P. casei and reported, for the first time, M. raptor as a pupal parasitoid of this Piophilidae. ER for both parasitoids were low, thus affecting the DP and SP estimations. This could be explained by the feeding behavior of the parasitoid host. The strongly female-biased SR for P. vindemiae supported previous studies. LS results in our experiment are crucial for determining the timing of release.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jisesa\/iead067","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,18]],"date-time":"2023-09-18T13:52:14Z","timestamp":1695045134000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Evaluation of <i>Pachycrepoideus vindemiae<\/i> and <i>Muscidifurax raptor<\/i> (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) as biological control agents of <i>Piophila casei<\/i> (Diptera: Piophilidae) in ham production facilities"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8418-2889","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Diletta","family":"Missere","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences (DISTAL), Alma Mater Studiorum Universit\u00e0 di Bologna , Viale Fanin 42, 40127 Bologna , Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonio","family":"Martini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences (DISTAL), Alma Mater Studiorum Universit\u00e0 di Bologna , Viale Fanin 42, 40127 Bologna , Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Giovanni","family":"Burgio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences (DISTAL), Alma Mater Studiorum Universit\u00e0 di Bologna , Viale Fanin 42, 40127 Bologna , Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0001","first-page":"39","article-title":"Problemassensoriales del jam\u00f3ncurado","volume":"297","author":"Arboix","year":"2021","journal-title":"Eurocarne: La revistaInternacional del sector c\u00e1rnico"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0002","volume-title":"Lo scenario economico Il settore in Italia e nelmondo (No. 10)","author":"ASSICA","year":"2022"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0003","first-page":"e0218301","article-title":"Factors affecting the biology of Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae), a parasitoid of spotted-wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii)","volume-title":"PLoS One.","author":"Bezerra Da Silva","year":"2019"},{"issue":"1","key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0004","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-019-40256-8","article-title":"Water-deprived parasitic wasps (Pachycrepoideus vindemmiae) kill more pupae of a pest (Drosophila suzukii) as a water-intake strategy","volume":"9","author":"Bezerra Da Silva","year":"2019","journal-title":"Sci Rep."},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0005","first-page":"1120","article-title":"Natural parasitism influences biological control strategies against both global invasive pests Ceratitis capitata (Diptera: Tephritidae) and Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae), and the neotropical-native pest Anastrepha fraterculus (Diptera: Tephritidae)","volume-title":"Environ Entomol.","author":"Biancheri","year":"2022"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0006","first-page":"273","article-title":"Host preference of three Asian larval parasitoids to closely related Drosophila species: implications for biological control of Drosophila suzukii","volume-title":"J Pest Sci","author":"Biondi","year":"2021"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0007","first-page":"151","article-title":"A comparative examination of life-span and fecundity in parasitoid hymenoptera","volume-title":"J Anim Ecol.","author":"Blackburn","year":"1991"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0008","volume-title":"Illustrated key to West-Palearctic genera of Pteromalidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea)","author":"Bou\u010dek","year":"1991"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0009","first-page":"19","article-title":"Quality assessment of Trichogramma brassicae in the laboratory","volume-title":"Entomol Exp Appl.","author":"Cerutti","year":"1995"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0010","first-page":"40","article-title":"Ability of European parasitoids (Hymenoptera) to control a new invasive Asiatic pest, Drosophila suzukii","volume-title":"Biol Control.","author":"Chabert","year":"2012"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0011","first-page":"632","article-title":"The biology of Pachycrepoideus dubius Ashmead (Hymenoptera), a Pteromalid parasite of Piophila casei Linne","volume-title":"Ann Entomol Soc Am.","author":"Crandell","year":"1939"},{"key":"2023091813130734400_CIT0013","volume-title":"Guidapratica per ilcontrollodelleinfestazioni da Piophilacasei (moschetta) nellaproduzione di prosciutto di Parma","author":"Derat Parma SASRL, E. and N.
