Possibilities for biological control of the western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte, in Central Europe
The western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera, was introduced to Europe from North America in the early 1990s. It spread rapidly from its site of introduction in Serbia and is now found over some 400,000 ha of southeastern Europe. The prospects for its classical biological control by introduction of natural enemies, including pathogens, nematodes and insects, from its area of origin...
متن کاملLikelihood of multiple mating in Diabrotica virgifera virgifera (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae).
We evaluated the mating ability of male western corn rootworms, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera Leconte (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), for 20 d after initial mating, using a series of laboratory experiments. Males mated an average of 2.24 times within 10 d after their first mating and averaged 0.15 matings between days 11 and 20 after their first mating. Because estimating the mating frequency in ...
متن کاملNo Clear Effect of Admixture between Two European Invading Outbreaks of Diabrotica virgifera virgifera in Natura
In this study, we challenged the hypothesis that admixture may have had a positive impact in the context of the European invasion of the western corn rootworm (WCR), Diabrotica virgifera virgifera, LeConte. This beetle was introduced in Europe from the USA several times since the 1980's. The multiple introductions of this major pest of cultivated corn led to the formation of two major outbreaks...
متن کاملGenes, Gene Flow and Adaptation of Diabrotica virgifera virgifera
1 Diabrotica virgifera virgifera has emerged as a major pest of cultivated maize, due to a combination of its high capacity to inflict economic damage, adaptability to pest management techniques and invasiveness. 2 This review presents a survey of the current state of knowledge about the genetics of D. v. virgifera . In addition, the tools and resources currently available to Diabrotica genetic...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Diabrotica virgifera virgifera virus 2, a Novel Small RNA Virus of the Western Corn Rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte
The genome of a novel small RNA virus, tentatively named Diabrotica virgifera virgifera virus 2 (DvvV2), was identified in the western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte, through transcriptome sequencing and confirmed by reverse transcription-PCR. Here, we report the near-complete nucleotide sequence and the genome organization of DvvV2.
