Genomic Signals of Adaptation towards Mutualism and Sociality in Two Ambrosia Beetle Complexes

Life, 2018
Mutualistic symbiosis and eusociality have developed through gradual evolutionary processes at different times in specific lineages. Like some species of termites and ants, ambrosia beetles have independently evolved a mutualistic nutritional symbiosis ...

The efficacy of the semiochemical repellent verbenone to reduce ambrosia beetle attack on healthy and Ceratocystis-infested ‘ōhiʻa trees

Trees, Forests and People
The Ceratocystis fungal disease complex, rapid ʻōhiʻa death (ROD), has killed over one million ʻōhiʻa (Metrosideros polymorpha), the keystone tree species of Hawaiʻi. The causal fungi can be spread by invasive ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Fungi associated to Platypus cylindrus Fab. (Coleoptera: Platypodidae) in cork oak Fungos associados ao insecto Platypus cylindrus Fab. (Coleoptera: Platypodidae) em sobreiro

Revista de Ciências Agrárias, 2009
Platypus cylindrus is a pest that since the 80’s of the last century has been considered a cork oak mortality agent in Portugal. It is an ambrosia beetle that establishes complex symbioses with fungi whose role in the insect-fungus-host interaction has ...
