Genetic variation in avocado stem weevils Copturus aguacatae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in Mexico.

Mitochondrial DNA - 1 Dec 2010

Engstrand Rachel C, Cibrián Tovar Juan, Cibrián-Jaramillo Angélica, Kolokotronis Sergios-Orestis

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The avocado stem weevil Copturus aguacatae is an important pest in avocado plantations. Its presence hinders the production and marketing of avocado in Mexico, the largest avocado producer worldwide. Biological control through pheromone synthesis, a strategy favored over chemical control in crops, is currently limited by difficult field identification of this species. MATERIALS AND METHODS:...
