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.

Discovery and characterization of chemical signals for citrus root weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus

Arthropod-Plant Interactions, 2009
The tropical root weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus (L. 1758) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a polyphagous insect from the Caribbean Islands and an invasive insect in the southern part of the United States where it is pest of citrus crops and ornamental trees. Adults feed upon foliage where aggregation, mating and oviposition take place. Here, the headspace

Toxicity and Repellency of Tephrosia candida to Larval and Adult Diaprepes Root Weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2003
Leaves of the tropical legume Tephrosia candida DC deterred feeding by adults of the Diaprepes root weevil, Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.), compared with leaves of Citrus macrophylla Wester, a common citrus rootstock, or T. vogelii Hook. f. When larvae were placed in pots containing plants of the three species for 28 d in a growth chamber, larval survival ...

Mitochondrial Nucleotide Variability in Invasive Populations of the Root Weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) of Florida and Preliminary Assessment of Diaprepes sp. from Dominica

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2008
Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a root weevil introduced into the United States from the Caribbean in 1964. It is associated with >300 plants, including citrus, sugarcane, and potatoes. D. abbreviatus is widespread in Florida, and it has recently been detected in limited areas of California and Texas.

Cross‐correlation patterns of air and soil temperatures, rainfall and Diaprepes abbreviatus root weevil in citrus

Pest Management Science, 2007
AbstractTime series cross‐correlation analysis is appropriate when measuring relationships between two different time series. Using this approach, the authors quantified the relationship between the time series air temperature (AT), soil temperature (ST), rainfall, relative humidity (RH) and Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) root ...

WATER STRESS AND ROOT INJURY FROM SIMULATED FLOODING AND DIAPREPES ABBREVIATUS ROOT WEEVIL LARVAL FEEDING IN CITRUS

Soil Science, 2006
Environmental stress from flooding can occur simultaneously with root weevil infestation to damage plant root systems. We conducted two factorial studies of flooding duration and Diaprepes abbreviatus (L.) root weevil larval feeding injury on citrus in the greenhouse in 2002 and 2003.

Storage proteins of the larval root weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): Riboflavin binding and subunit isolation

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, 1992
AbstractProteins present at high concentrations in hemolymph of the larval weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus were previously shown to bind a synthetic coumarin, 7‐amino‐3‐phenyl coumarin (coumarin‐10). One of the two native proteins previously identified (protein I) is now shown to separate into two distinct bands (proteins la and lb) using native gradient ...

Dehydrothalebanin:  A Source of Resistance from Glycosmis pentaphylla against the Citrus Root Weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2000
Roots of a citrus relative, Glycosmis pentaphylla (orangeberry), were shown to inhibit the growth and survival of larvae of the citrus root weevil Diaprepes abbreviatus. Roots of G. pentaphyllaincorporated into the diet of D. abbreviatus increasingly inhibited the growth of neonate larvae with increased concentration of roots, while roots from citrus ...
