Highly Expressed Odorant Receptor Orthologs Detect the Aggregation Pheromone Lineatin in Trypodendron Ambrosia Beetles

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 18, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication using pheromones is crucial for the reproductive success of many insect species, including beetles (Coleoptera). Pheromones are detected by specialised odorant receptors (ORs), called pheromone receptors (PRs), in the sensory neurons of the antennae.

An overview of evaluating the efficacy of microbial pathogens for biological control of the red palm weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier, 1790) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) insights from laboratory and field studies

Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control
Background This overview explores the use of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), fungi (EPFs), bacteria (EPBs), and viruses (EPVs) as biological control strategies against the red palm weevil (RPW) (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus), a significant pest of date ...

Endosymbiosis morphological reorganization during metamorphosis diverges in weevils

Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2020
Virtually all animals associate with beneficial symbiotic bacteria. Whether and how these associations are modulated across a host’s lifecycle is an important question in disentangling animal-bacteria interactions. We recently reported a case of complete

A new insect boring in fossil wood from the Iranian Upper Cretaceous

Palaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Here we describe Iranichnus farsensis igen. et isp. nov., a bioerosion trace in fossil wood characterized by a system of sinuous channels in the wood under the bark, also bearing small borings radially oriented within the channels. We attributed this to insects, most probably a beetle from one of the groups known to feed on wood just under the

BIOTYPICAL VARIABILITY AMONG FOUR POPULATIONS OF RED PALM WEEVIL RHYNCHOPHORUS FERRUGIAEUS FAB/OLIV. FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF INDIA

CORD, 1998
The red palm weevil rhpichophorus ferrugineus FAB/OLIV is a very serious and dreaded pest of coconut, date and other palms. Being an internal feeder the weevil incidence is detected at a very late stage when the tree has succumbed to weevil attack. Hence

Novel Animal Model of Enterobacteria Pathogenicity, Virulence, and Amoxicillin—Biosurfactant Synergic Using Nsombé (Rhynchophorus phoenicis Larvae)

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 4, August 2025.
This study highlights the potential of Rhynchophorus phoenicis larvae as an alternative infection model for evaluating host–pathogen interactions and the synergistic effects of combined antimicrobial therapies using antibiotics and biosurfactants. ABSTRACT Insect larvae are increasingly being employed as sophisticated infection models in the expanding ...
