Behavioural parameters of Bactrocera dorsalis flies from Saraburi (S) and Nakhon Si Thammarat (N) (Thailand) during mating compatibility trials in 2010 and 2011. A Relative percentages and total numbers of each possible couple formed. Numbers in bars are total numbers of each couple formed summed across replicates B Mating latency as average time since first couple observed for couples formed C Average percentage of respective couples collected from the tree for each of the six mating compatibility comparisons. For all graphs, columns surmounted by the same letter within a year are not significantly different at α = 0.05.
