Molecular genetic variation of boll weevil populations in North America estimated with microsatellites: implications for patterns of dispersal.

Genetica - 1 May 2006

Kim Kyung Seok, Sappington Thomas W

Abstract excerpt

The boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis Boheman) is an insect pest of cotton that underwent a well-documented range expansion across the southeastern U.S. from Mexico beginning about 110 years ago. Eleven microsatellite loci were surveyed to infer the magnitude and pattern of genetic differentiation among boll weevil populations from 18 locations across eight U.S. states and northeast Mexico. Estimates of genetic...
