Summary: The objectives of this project were: 1. To further develop and improve a predictive phenology model for cherry fruit fly in the Mid- Columbia area. 2. To obtain data from original experiments about adult longevity, egg-laying, and about pupal development in the spring for inclusion in the phenology model. 3. To further validate cherry fruit fly model predictions using trap catch and weather data from The Dalles and Hood River collected in 2003 and 2004. 4. To make the cherry fruit fly model predictions available to all cherry-growing districts in the Mid-Columbia area via the Internet at The Dalles IFPnet web site and Oregon State University’s IPPC web site and link them to weather data from weather networks in The Dalles and Hood River.
