Bayega A, Oikonomopoulos S, Gregoriou M, Tsoumani K, Giakountis A, Wang Y, et al.
Sci Rep . 2021 Apr; 11(1):7878. PMID: 33846393
The olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae, is the most important pest for the olive fruit but lacks adequate transcriptomic characterization that could aid in molecular control approaches. We apply nanopore...

Gregoriou M, Reczko M, Kakani E, Tsoumani K, Mathiopoulos K
Genes (Basel) . 2021 Mar; 12(3). PMID: 33670896
In most diploid organisms, mating is a prerequisite for reproduction and, thus, critical to the maintenance of their population and the perpetuation of the species. Besides the importance of understanding...

Tsoumani K, Belavilas-Trovas A, Gregoriou M, Mathiopoulos K
BMC Genet . 2020 Dec; 21(Suppl 2):140. PMID: 33339492
Background: The olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae) is the most destructive pest of the olive cultivation worldwide causing significant production losses and olive fruit impoverishment, as its larvae feed exclusively...

Bayega A, Djambazian H, Tsoumani K, Gregoriou M, Sagri E, Drosopoulou E, et al.
BMC Genomics . 2020 Apr; 21(1):259. PMID: 32228451
Background: The olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae, is the most important pest in the olive fruit agribusiness industry. This is because female flies lay their eggs in the unripe fruits...

Meccariello A, Tsoumani K, Gravina A, Primo P, Buonanno M, Mathiopoulos K, et al.
Arch Insect Biochem Physiol . 2020 Feb; 104(2):e21667. PMID: 32100335
The olive fruit fly, Bactrocera oleae (Diptera: Tephritidae), is the most destructive insect pest of olive cultivation, causing significant economic and production losses. Here, we present the establishment of the...

Tsoumani K, Meccariello A, Mathiopoulos K, Papathanos P
Arch Insect Biochem Physiol . 2019 Dec; 103(3):e21652. PMID: 31845410
Agricultural pest control using genetic-based methods provides a species-specific and environmentally harmless way for population suppression of fruit flies. One way to improve the efficiency of such methods is through...

Meccariello A, Salvemini M, Primo P, Hall B, Koskinioti P, Dalikova M, et al.
Science . 2019 Aug; 365(6460):1457-1460. PMID: 31467189
In insects, rapidly evolving primary sex-determining signals are transduced by a conserved regulatory module controlling sexual differentiation. In the agricultural pest (Mediterranean fruit fly, or Medfly), we identified a Y-linked...

Sagri E, Koskinioti P, Gregoriou M, Tsoumani K, Bassiakos Y, Mathiopoulos K
Sci Rep . 2017 Apr; 7:45634. PMID: 28368031
Real-time quantitative-PCR has been a priceless tool for gene expression analyses. The reaction, however, needs proper normalization with the use of housekeeping genes (HKGs), whose expression remains stable throughout the...

Tsoumani K, Drosopoulou E, Bourtzis K, Gariou-Papalexiou A, Mavragani-Tsipidou P, Zacharopoulou A, et al.
PLoS One . 2015 Sep; 10(9):e0137050. PMID: 26398504
Sex chromosomes have many unusual features relative to autosomes. The in depth exploration of their structure will improve our understanding of their origin and divergence (degeneration) as well as the...

BMC Genet . 2014 Dec; 15 Suppl 2:S8. PMID: 25472866
Background: Olive cultivation blends with the history of the Mediterranean countries since ancient times. Even today, activities around the olive tree constitute major engagements of several people in the countryside...
