Abstract：The Chinese citrus fruit fly, Bactrocera minax (Enderlein), is one of the most seriouspests in Citrus spp.. In the 1980s and 1990s the sterile insect technique(SIT) was successfully implemented to control B. minax in China. In this paper, we have reviewed the management of B. minax by SIT with regard to artificial rearing, the sterile technique and the release in the field with a view to facilitating research and development of SIT to control B. minax sustainably in the future.
