Homology difference analysis of invasive mealybug species Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley in Southern China with COI gene sequence variability
The mealybug species Phenacoccus solenopsis (P. solenopsis) has caused much agricultural damage since its recent invasion in China. However, the source of this invasion remains unclear. This study uses molecular methods to clarify the relationships among different population of P. solenopsis from China, USA, Pakistan, India, and Vietnam to determine the geographic origin of the introduction of ...
متن کاملA new record of mealybug pest in the south of Iran, Phenacoccus solenopsis (Hemiptera: Coccoidea: Pseudococcidae)
شپشک آردآلود Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley در تاریخ 12/10/1387 از بندرعباس و میناب در استان هرمزگان از روی ختمی چینی Hibiscus rosa-sinensis جمع‌آوری شد. این شپشک که برای اولین بار از ایران گزارش می‌شود، در پاکستان و هند یکی از آفات خسارت‌زا روی محصول پنبه است و سالانه مبالغ هنگفتی صرف کنترل شیمیایی آن می‌گردد. این شپشک خسارت قابل ملاحظه‌ای به گیاهان زینتی در شهرها و درختان میوه، به‌ویژه مرکبات...
متن کاملReproduction of the Solenopsis Mealybug, Phenacoccus Solenopsis: Males Play an Important Role
The solenopsis mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is an aggressive pest threatening crops worldwide. The biology of P. solenopsis has been described in several studies, but detailed information on the reproduction of P. solenopsis has not been investigated. The results of our study showed: 1) no progeny could be produced by virgins; 2) apoptosis of follicle ce...
متن کاملEffect of Honey Solution and Water Acquisition on Survival of Starved Solenopsis Mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis
The current study examined the effects of honey solution and water access on feeding behavior and survival of starving solenopsis mealybugs, Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae). The electrical penetration graph technique and an artificial membrane system were used to check whether P. solenopsis could imbibe free water or other liquid, such as the honey solution used here,...
متن کاملThe native ant, Tapinoma melanocephalum, improves the survival of an invasive mealybug, Phenacoccus solenopsis, by defending it from parasitoids
Mutualistic ants can protect their partners from natural enemies in nature. Aenasius bambawalei is an important parasitoid of the the invasive mealybug Phenacoccus solenopsis. We hypothesized that mutualism between native ants and mealybugs would favor survival of mealybugs. To test this, we examined effects of tending by the native mutualistic ant Tapinoma melanocephalum on growth of P. soleno...
