Sterilized (by irradiation) and untreated laboratory-reared Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann) were studied in a specially designed flight-propensity chamber. Irradiation with 10 krad 2 days before adult eclosion produced a sedentary male and a very sedentary female, compared with the unirradiated counterparts and with native flies. The irradiated male and female were about 4O and 60%, respectively, less active than the native fly. The irradiated laboratory-reared fly also had a reduced potential for survival in a field cage and was eliminated in 8 to 9 days; the unirradiated fly was eliminated in 7-11 days.
