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

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the Japanese sawyer beetle Monochamus alternatus [PDF]
The Japanese sawyer beetle Monochamus alternatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) is a pest in pine forests and acts as a vector for the pine wood nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, which causes the pine wilt disease. We assembled a high-quality genome of M.

Requirement of group I lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase for turnover of chitinous cuticle during moulting in two forest pest beetles, Monochamus alternatus and Psacothea hilaris. [PDF]
Group I LPMO15‐1 cDNAs from two economically important forest insect pests, M. alternatus and P. hilaris, were cloned. MaLPMO15‐1 and PhLPMO15‐1 show a similar pattern of expression during late stages of development. RNAi for LPMO15‐1 causes failure of adult eclosion in both M. alternatus and P. hilaris.
