Abstract

Highlights: [•] Sterile and wild-type C. capitata males showed similar susceptibility to M. anisopliae. [•] Sterile males were less attracted to infective dishes than wild-type males. [•] Under laboratory conditions, M. anisopliae did not impair mating performance of sterile males. [•] Infective device seems to be compatible with C. capitata Sterile Insect Technique under laboratory conditions. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
