Diversity of Lepidoptera associated with macadamia nut damage in South Africa and development of molecular tools to monitor pest populations

2022-08-01

Abstract excerpt

Lepidopteran pests are of major economic importance to macadamia growers worldwide. In South Africa, four species have been associated with macadamia nut damage. Detailed information regarding species composition of the borer larvae in the nuts and the genetic diversity of these species is not however available. Lepidoptera obtained from nuts from the KwaZulu‐Natal, Mpumalanga and Limpopo provinces were identified...
