Transcription Profile and Genomic Variations of Oryctes Rhinoceros Nudivirus in Coconut Rhinoceros Beetles [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 2020
Oryctes rhinoceros nudivirus has been an effective biocontrol agent against the coconut rhinoceros beetle in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands for decades. The recent outbreak of these beetles in many South Pacific islands has had a significant impact on livelihoods in the region.

Genomic identification of Oryctes rhinoceros nudivirus isolates, a biocontrol agent for coconut rhinoceros beetle. [PDF]

Arch Microbiol
AbstractThe coconut rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes rhinoceros, CRB) is a serious pest of coconut and oil palms. It is native to South and Southeast Asia and was inadvertently introduced to Samoa in 1909. It has invaded many other Pacific countries throughout the last century.

Coconut rhinoceros beetle digestive symbiosis with potential plant cell wall degrading microbes [PDF]

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes
Coconut rhinoceros beetle (CRB, Oryctes rhinoceros) is an invasive palm pest whose larvae eat wood, yet lack the necessary digestive enzymes. This study confirmed endogenous CRB cellulase is inactive, suggesting microbial fermentation.

Variants in the mitochondrial genome sequence of Oryctes rhinoceros (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) infected with Oryctes rhinoceros nudivirus in oil palm and coconut plantations [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
The CRB (coconut rhinoceros beetle) haplotype was classified into CRB-S and CRB-G, based on the presence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the mitochondrial cox1 gene.

Use of pheromones for monitoring and control strategies of coconut rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes rhinoceros): A review

Crop Protection, 2023
The coconut rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes rhinoceros, CRB), a native to South-east Asia, is a major pest of coconut and oil palms in the Pacific. Beetles produce an aggregation pheromone identified as ethyl 4-methyloctanoate (E4-MO). Beetles use this pheromone to locate suitable feeding sites in palms and breeding materials.

The hindgut microbiota of coconut rhinoceros beetles (<i>Oryctes rhinoceros</i>) in relation to their geographical populations. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol
ABSTRACT The coconut rhinoceros beetle (CRB, Oryctes rhinoceros ) is a palm tree pest capable of rapidly expanding its population in new territories. Previous studies identified a digestive symbiosis between CRB and its gut microbes. However, no research compared the genetic

Recombinase polymerase amplification-based rapid detection of Oryctes rhinoceros nudivirus (OrNV) infection in coconut rhinoceros beetles [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The coconut rhinoceros beetle (CRB) is an important pest of palms in the Asia/Pacific regions. A natural pathogen of CRB, Oryctes rhinoceros nudivirus (OrNV) has successfully been introduced into virus-free, invasive CRB populations in many Pacific ...
