| intraspecific and interspecific variations in the mitochondrial genomes of nilaparvata (hemiptera: delphacidae). | planthoppers in the genus nilaparvata distant are serious pests of rice and many other crops in tropical and temperate asia, and northern australia. in this study, the mitochondrial genomes of four nilaparvata planthoppers were sequenced, three in nilaparvata lugens stål and one in nilaparvata muiri china. mitochondrial genome of nilaparvata contain the standard set of 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer rna genes, 2 ribosomal rna genes, and a control region. the nucleotide composition of nilap ... | 2015 | 26470349 |
| use of banker plant system for sustainable management of the most important insect pest in rice fields in china. | to meet the world's food demand, there is a growing need for sustainable pest management practices. this study describes the results from complementary laboratory and field studies of a "banker plant system" for sustainable management of the rice brown planthopper (bph) (nilaparvata lugens stål) - the economically most important rice pest in asian rice growing areas. the banker plant system consisted of planting a grass species, leersia sayanuka, adjacent to rice fields. l. sayanuka is the host ... | 2017 | 28367978 |
| various infection status and molecular evidence for horizontal transmission and recombination of wolbachia and cardinium among rice planthoppers and related species. | wolbachia and cardinium are widely distributed and are considered important for their ability to disturb reproduction and affect other fitness-related traits of their hosts. by using multilocus sequence typing (mlst), rflp (restriction fragment length polymorphism) and 16s ribosomal dna gene sequencing methods, we extensively surveyed wolbachia and cardinium infection status of four predominant rice planthoppers and one kind of leafhopper in different rice fields. the results demonstrated that s ... | 2013 | 23955885 |
| permanent genetic resources added to molecular ecology resources database 1 december 2011-31 january 2012. | this article documents the addition of 473 microsatellite marker loci and 71 pairs of single-nucleotide polymorphism (snp) sequencing primers to the molecular ecology resources database. loci were developed for the following species: barteria fistulosa, bombus morio, galaxias platei, hematodinium perezi, macrocentrus cingulum brischke (a.k.a. m. abdominalis fab., m. grandii goidanich or m. gifuensis ashmead), micropogonias furnieri, nerita melanotragus, nilaparvata lugens stål, sciaenops ocellat ... | 2012 | 22448966 |
