Polymorphic microsatellite loci for Diaprepes root weevil (Diaprepes abbreviatus L.)

Molecular Ecology Notes, 2005
Abstract Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) is an insect pest of the US agriculture that originated from the Caribbean islands. Larvae are of economic importance in both nursery and commercial citrus plantings due to root feeding. Eight polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed from a (CA)n‐enriched genomic library of Diaprepes root weevil.

The genome of the invasive and broadly polyphagous Diaprepes root weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus (Coleoptera), reveals an arsenal of putative polysaccharide-degrading enzymes

Journal of Heredity, 2023
Abstract The Diaprepes root weevil (DRW), Diaprepes abbreviatus, is a broadly polyphagous invasive pest of agriculture in the southern United States and the Caribbean. Its genome was sequenced, assembled, and annotated to study genomic correlates of specialized plant-feeding and invasiveness and to facilitate the development of new ...

Male postcopulatory reproductive success in the beetle, Diaprepes abbreviatus

Animal Behaviour, 2007
For most species that have been studied, considerable variation exists in male postcopulatory reproductive success, including female sperm use, reproductive investment and remating patterns. We investigated postcopulatory sexual selection in the beetle Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) by examining the correlation of two measures ...

Bibliography of the Sugarcane Rootstalk Borer Weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus

Bulletin of the Entomological Society of America, 1979
In the United States, the so-called sugarcane rootstalk borer weevil. Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.), is at present found only in the state of Florida, infesting citrus andother host plants in Orange, Seminole, and Broward Co. It was first discovered near Apopka (Orange Co.) in a citrus nursery in 1964 (Woodruff 1964).
