Complete mitochondrial genome of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2015
In this study, we determined the mitochondrial genome of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus. The mitochondrial genome is 15 924 bp in length (GC content: 25.6%), encodes 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 13 protein-coding genes, 21 transfer RNA genes, and 1 D-loop region. nad6 and cob are overlapped by 30 bp and atp8 and atp6 are overlapped by 12 bp. The phylogenetic tree

Purification and characterization of acetylcholinesterase in Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2020
Red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus, is one of the most destructive pests of cultivated palm trees. The application of synthetic insecticides is currently a main strategy for RPW control. In this study we estimated the distribution of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), as a detoxifying enzyme and the target site of inhibition by insecticides ...

The use of sniffing dogs for the detection of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus

Phytoparasitica, 2013
The red palm weevil (RPW) Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Dryophthoridae) is the most serious pest of Canary Island date palms (Phoenix canariensis Hort. ex Chabaud) and date palms (Phoenix dactylifera L.). Early infestations of this invasive weevil are difficult to detect under field conditions.

Action Programs for Rhynchophorus ferrugineus and Paysandisia archon

2017
The spread of invasive alien species is strongly associated with the rapid acceleration of human trade, tourism, transport, and travel over the past century, which have allowed these species to overcome natural geographic barriers. The best strategy to prevent the spread of invasive species is quarantine and eradication of initial foci.

Natural enemies of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus and Paysandisia archon

2017
Biological control of insect pests consists of the beneficial action of entomophagous predators and parasitoids, and entomopathogenic microorganisms (protozoa, nematodes, bacteria, fungi, and viruses) in controlling pest populations. There are three biological pest control strategies: classical biological control, conservation, and augmentation ...

Red Palm Weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier)

2017
The red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Coleoptera, Curculionidae) is the most destructive pest of palm trees worldwide. RPW can potentially spread to all palm-growing areas in China, mainly ranging across much of South, East, and Southwest areas and causing severe economic loss. Here, we introduce the current distribution of RPW in China,

A location aware system for integrated management of Rhynchophorus ferrugineus in urban systems

Computers, Environment and Urban Systems, 2015
Abstract The red palm weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), an invasive species for many countries, is one of the most dangerous pests of ornamental palms in urban landscapes. When infested by the RPW, all untreated palms typically die.
