Parthenogenesis in weevils of the tribe Naupactini (Coleoptera, Curculionidae): aWolbachia-density dependent trait? [PDF]
, 2020 AbstractThe intracellular bacteriaWolbachia pipientiscan manipulate host reproduction to enhance their vertical transmission. It has been reported an association between parthenogenesis andWolbachiainfection in weevils from the tribe Naupactini. A curing experiment suggested that a threshold density ofWolbachiais required for parthenogenesis to occur ...

On the Presence of Five Species of Naupactini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Damaging Soybean in Brazil
Neotropical Entomology, 2013 We report five broad-nosed weevils of the tribe Naupactini, Naupactus leucoloma Boheman, Naupactus minor (Buchanan), Naupactus peregrinus (Buchanan), Naupactus tremolerasi Hustache and Pantomorus viridisquamosus (Boheman) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) damaging soybean plants in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

PHYLOGENY AND EVOLUTION OF PARTHENOGENETIC WEEVILS OF THE ARAMIGUS TESSELLATUS SPECIES COMPLEX (COLEOPTERA: CURCULIONIDAE: NAUPACTINI): EVIDENCE FROM MITOCHONDRIAL DNA SEQUENCES [PDF]
Evolution, 1996 Molecular-phylogenetic studies of parthenogenetic animals have been a valuable recent addition to the literature on the evolutionary biology of sex. By illuminating the origins and ages of parthenogenetic lineages, such studies can help to define the temporal scale at which selection acts against parthenogenetic lineages, as well as provide an ...

Phylogeny of the tribe Naupactini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) based on morphological characters [PDF]
Systematic Entomology, 2016 Abstract Naupactini (Curculionidae: Entiminae) is a primarily Neotropical tribe of broad‐nosed weevils with its highest genus and species diversity in South America. Despite several taxonomic contributions published during the last decades, the evolutionary history of Naupactini remains poorly understood.

Zootaxa, 2018 We examined the type material of 15 species of Naupactus Dejean and related genera (Curculionidae: Entiminae), most of them described by Alphonse Hustache (Museum National d’Histoire Naturelle, Paris) and Carl Boheman (Naturhistoriska Riksmuseet, Stockholm).

Journal of Biogeography, 2015 AbstractAimNaupactini are highly diverse weevils, widespread in the Neotropical region. Their evolution may have been driven by geological and environmental changes. Our main goals were to explain the biotic diversification of this tribe in South America and to test previous hypotheses on the relationships between distribution areas.LocationNeotropical

Insect Molecular Biology, 2010 Abstract Several parthenogenetic species of broad‐nosed weevils exist, some of them of economic importance because of their pest status. Screening of the maternally inherited Wolbachia bacterium in 29 weevils of the tribe Naupactini, using multilocus sequence typing allowed ...

Mito-nuclear genetic comparison in a Wolbachia infected weevil: insights on reproductive mode, infection age and evolutionary forces shaping genetic variation. [PDF]
BMC Evol Biol, 2010 Background: Maternally inherited endosymbionts like Wolbachia pipientis are in linkage disequilibrium with the mtDNA of their hosts. Therefore, they can induce selective sweeps, decreasing genetic diversity over many generations. This sex ratio distorter,
