Multilocus sequence typing of the invasive pest Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) and associated endosymbiont reveals unexplored diversity

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 1187-1205, June 2026.
A multilocus sequence typing approach is proposed to explore Halymorpha halys genetic diversity, taking into consideration both insect nuclear markers and markers from the gut symbiont “Candidatus Pantoa carbekii.” Increased information was revealed regarding the number of distinct holobiont haplotypes in native and invasive populations of the pest ...

Are integrative systematic tools efficient toward unraveling species diversity with the genus Jania (Corallinaceae, Rhodophyta)?

Journal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 3, Page 781-800, June 2026.
Abstract The articulated genus Jania currently comprises 54 accepted species, making it the fourth most speciose genus among corallines, following Lithophyllum, Amphiroa, and Lithothamnion. Unlike these other genera, Jania is relatively easy to identify at a generic rank. However, morpho‐anatomical characters are insufficiently discriminant for species

From Traps to Taxa: Building a Robust DNA Barcode Reference Library for the Early Detection of Invasive Cerambycidae

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
This work presents a curated DNA barcode reference library covering 147 species of longhorned beetles commonly intercepted in European biosurveillance programmes. By focusing on taxonomic validation and data quality, this resource improves the accuracy of specimen identification despite the limitations of existing databases. It also supports ecological

Genetic structure of Culex tritaeniorhynchus (Diptera: Culicidae) based on COI DNA barcodes

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Culex tritaeniorhynchus Gile is a major vector of Japanese encephalitis in China. The population genetics study is crucial as it helps understanding the epidemiological aspects of mosquito-brone diseases and improving vector control measures.

A PCR–RFLP Assay for Identifying the Cryptic Australian Endemic Plutella australiana From Invasive Plutella xylostella

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 2, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Plutella xylostella, diamondback moth, is a major invasive worldwide pest. In Australia, a local Plutella known as P. australiana is almost morphologically indistinguishable from P. xylostella. Therefore, we developed a PCR–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) assay targeting the mitochondrial COI gene to differentiate the two ...

A COI DNA barcoding survey of Pratylenchus species in the Great Plains Region of North America

Journal of Nematology, 2019
Pratylenchus species are among the most common plant parasitic nematodes in the Great Plains Region of North America. Our goal was to survey Pratylenchus species diversity across the Great Plains region using a mitochondrial COI DNA barcode.
