Harvard Papers in Botany, 2019 The Virua National Park (VNP) with its different plant formations (rainforest, white-sand savannas —“campinaranas,” and “buritizais”) is located in a region still lacking in botanical studies (Guiana Shield and Brazilian Amazon). Aiming to improve the knowledge of the region's flora, collections were conducted in VNP from 2010 to 2015. The present work

RNA editing in the chloroplast of Asian Palmyra palm (Borassus flabellifer) [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2020 We have identified 46 RNA editing sites located in 20 chloroplast (cp) genes of Borassus flabellifer (Asian Palmyra palm), family Arecaceae, and tested these genes for supporting phylogenetic study among the commelinids. Among the 46 sites, 43 sites were

Acoustical Detection of Early InstarRhynchophorus ferrugineus(Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in Canary Island Date Palm,Phoenix canariensis(Arecales: Arecaceae) [PDF]
Florida Entomologist, 2012 ABSTRACT The red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier), recently found in Curacao and Aruba, has become an economically significant palm tree pest in many tropical and subtropical regions. By the time a palm infested with RPW displays visible damage, larvae have destroyed much of the trunk internal structure, typically resulting in ...

Boletín Científico Centro de Museos Museo de Historia Natural, 2017 Los altos niveles poblacionales de R. palmarum en plantaciones de chontaduro representan la principal limitante para el rendimiento de este cultivo. Con base en lo anterior, el objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el trampeo de R. palmarum como una alternativa al uso indiscriminado de insecticidas de síntesis química como control convencional para esta

Acoustic Detection ofRhynchophorus ferrugineus(Coleoptera: Dryophthoridae) andOryctes elegans(Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) inPhoenix dactylifera(Arecales: Arecacae) Trees and Offshoots in Saudi Arabian Orchards [PDF]
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2016 Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Dryophthoridae) larvae are cryptic, internal tissue-feeding pests of palm trees that are difficult to detect; consequently, infestations may remain hidden until they are widespread in an orchard.
