Polyphasic study of phytopathogenic bacterial strains associated with deep bark canker of walnut in Serbia revealed a new species, Brenneria izbisi sp. nov
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
Serious outbreaks of walnut deep bark canker were observed on young walnut trees (Juglans regia L.) in two localities in the northern part of Serbia during 2020. From the symptomatic walnut tissues, two types of bacterial ...
Molecular and morphological variation among the European species of the genus Aphidius Nees (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae)
(Gesellschaft fuer Biologische Systematik, 2021)
The main objective of the present paper was to analyse and compare the patterns of molecular and morphological divergence of European parasitoid wasps belonging to the diverse genus Aphidius Nees, 1818. The maximum likelihood ...
The Namaini, a new weevil tribe with six new genera from South Africa (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae)
(The Linnean Society of London, 2021)
Based on a phylogenetic analysis of a large number of mainly undescribed edaphic Entiminae from South Africa,
a new tribe of entimine weevils is described, which includes six new genera. Taxa included in Namaini trib. ...
Molecular characteristics of phytoplasmas associated with Flavescence doree in clematis and grapevine and preliminary results on the role of Dictyophara europaea as a vector
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, Inc, Malden, 2009)
A survey was conducted over several years in Italy and the Balkans in order to gain an understanding of the relationship between the Flavescence doree (FD) phytoplasma isolates found in clematis and grapevine. A total of ...
Morphophysiological traits and atrazine sensitivity in Chenopodium album L.
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, Chichester, 2008)
BACKGROUND: A Chenopodium album L. biotype surviving in atrazine-treated Serbian corn fields (VC) was compared against atrazine-susceptible (S) and atrazine-resistant (R) standards. RESULTS: Atrazine (2 kg ha(-1)) killed ...
Morphological, molecular and biological evidence reveal two cryptic species in Mecinus janthinus Germar (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), a successful biological control agent of Dalmatian toadflax, Linaria dalmatica (Lamiales, Plantaginaceae)
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2011)
A combined morphological, molecular and biological study shows that the weevil species presently named Mecinus janthinus is actually composed of two different cryptic species: M. janthinus Germar, 1821 and M. janthiniformis ...
Host-associated genetic differentiation in a seed parasitic weevil Rhinusa antirrhini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) revealed by mitochondrial and nuclear sequence data
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2010)
Plant feeding insects and the plants they feed upon represent an ecological association that is thought to be a key factor for the diversification of many plant feeding insects, through differential adaptation to different ...
Molecular phylogenetic analysis of archival tissue reveals the origin of a disjunct southern African-Palaearctic weevil radiation
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2013)
Aim We test three alternative hypotheses for the disjunct Mediterranean-southern African distribution of endophagous weevils within the genera Rhinusa and Gymnetron (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): (1) a Palaearctic origin ...
Revision of Mecinus heydenii species complex (Curculionidae): integrative taxonomy reveals multiple species exhibiting host specialization
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2014)
A combined taxonomic, morphological, molecular and biological study revealed that the species presently named Mecinus heydenii is actually composed of five different species: M.heydenii Wencker, 1866; M.raphaelis Baviera ...
Euscelis incisus (Cicadellidae, Deltocephalinae), a natural vector of 16SrIII-B phytoplasma causing multiple inflorescence disease of Cirsium arvense
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2015)
We investigated multiple inflorescence disease of Cirsium arvense (CMI) and its association with phytoplasmas of the 16SrIII-B subgroup, potential natural vector(s) and reservoir plant(s). From five locations in northern ...
