Protoplasma https://doi.org/10.1007/s00709-019-01377-z ORIGINAL ARTICLE Bacterial associates of Orthezia urticae, Matsucoccus pini, and Steingelia gorodetskia - scale insects of archaeoccoid families Ortheziidae, Matsucoccidae, and Steingeliidae (Hemiptera, Coccomorpha) Katarzyna Michalik1 & Teresa Szklarzewicz1 & Małgorzata Kalandyk-Kołodziejczyk2 & Anna Michalik1 Received: 1 February 2019 /Accepted: 2 April 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract The biological nature, ultrastructure, distribution, and mode of transmission between generations of the microorganisms associ- ated with three species (Orthezia urticae, Matsucoccus pini, Steingelia gorodetskia) of primitive families (archaeococcoids = Orthezioidea) of scale insects were investigated by means of microscopic and molecular methods. In all the specimens of Orthezia urticae and Matsucoccus pini examined, bacteria Wolbachia were identified. In some examined specimens of O. urticae,apartfromWolbachia,bacteriaSodalis were detected. In Steingelia gorodetskia, the bacteria of the genus Sphingomonas were found. In contrast to most plant sap-sucking hemipterans, the bacterial associates of O. urticae, M. pini, and S. gorodetskia are not harbored in specialized bacteriocytes, but are dispersed in the cells of different organs. Ultrastructural observations have shown that bacteria Wolbachia in O. urticae and M. pini, Sodalis in O. urticae, and Sphingomonas in S. gorodetskia are transovarially transmitted from mother to progeny.

The mango orchards were visited and it was found that maximum number of females were exposed from the roots of host plants in the field (1.9 m2) and minimum numbers of females were recorded from the cracks of trees, sides of kacha roads, soil under tree canopy (0.16 m-2). The data revealed that the treatment with three measures (cultural, mechanical & chemical) were combined had maximum effect in reducing the population i.e., 98.46%. It was also concluded from the results that the measures in integrated form gave better results than the single treatment.

Although the majority of consumed insects are gathered in forest habitats, mass-rearing systems are being developed in many countries. Insects offer a significant opportunity to merge traditional knowledge and modern science to improve human food security worldwide. This publication describes the contribution of insects to food security and examines future prospects for raising insects at a commercial scale to improve food and feed production, diversify diets, and support livelihoods in both developing and developed countries. It shows the many traditional and potential new uses of insects for direct human consumption and the opportunities for and constraints to farming them for food and feed. It examines the body of research on issues such as insect nutrition and food safety, the use of insects as animal feed, and the processing and preservation of insects and their products. It highlights the need to develop a regulatory framework to govern the use of insects for food security. And it presents case studies and examples from around the world. Edible insects are a promising alternative to the conventional production of meat, either for direct human consumption or for indirect use as feedstock. -

A Preliminary Review on Mango Mealy Bug, Drosicha Mangiferae (Green) a Notorious Pest to Mango Orchards
International Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences ISSN: 2321-3272 (Print), ISSN: 2230-7605 (Online) IJPBS | Volume 8 | Issue 2 | APR-JUN | 2018 | 555-561 Review Article | Biological Sciences | Open Access | MCI Approved| |UGC Approved Journal | A PRELIMINARY REVIEW ON MANGO MEALY BUG, DROSICHA MANGIFERAE (GREEN) A NOTORIOUS PEST TO MANGO ORCHARDS Totan Das*1 and Kaushik Chakraborty2 *1,2 Department of Zoology, University of Gour Banga, Mokdumpur, Malda-732103, West Bengal, India *Corresponding Author Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is accounting for nearly 50 % of the world tropical fruit production. Mango mealy bug, Drosicha mangiferae (Green), is the serious, dilapidating, polyphagus, dimorphic and notorious insect pest of mango orchards in Indian sub-continent, frequently distributed in indo-gangetic plains, alternatively feeding on other fruits crops, forest trees, ornamental plants and weeds. Body usually covered by wax with distinct abdomen. Adult female crawls down the tree in the month of April-May and enter in the cracks in the soil and laid eggs. Eggs remain in diapauses up to middle of December. Sometimes it extends up to January, then hatched to become nymph and became adult through three successive stages. Drosicha mangiferae causes damage of mango principally due to sucking of ‘cell sap’ from tender leaves, stem, inflorescence and growing fruits often causing fruit drops reducing its market value. Besides, honeydews excreta of mealy bugs, promote sooty mould causing blackening and malformation of growing leaves, stems and fruits. Long term control is required in repeated fashion due to its hiding habit and protective body covering. For this reason, chemical treatment is therefore not advised till control is not satisfactory by other methods. -
Importation of Citrus Spp. (Rutaceae) Fruit from China Into the Continental
Importation of Citrus spp. (Rutaceae) United States fruit from China into the continental Department of Agriculture United States Animal and Plant Health Inspection A Qualitative, Pathway-Initiated Pest Risk Service Assessment January 14, 2020 Version 5.0 Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology Plant Protection and Quarantine Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service United States Department of Agriculture 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Pest Risk Assessment for Citrus from China Executive Summary The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) prepared this risk assessment document to examine plant pest risks associated with importing commercially produced fruit of Citrus spp. (Rutaceae) for consumption from China into the continental United States. The risk ratings in this risk assessment are contingent on the application of all components of the pathway as described in this document (e.g., washing, brushing, disinfesting, and waxing). Citrus fruit produced under different conditions were not evaluated in this risk assessment and may have a different pest risk. The proposed species or varieties of citrus for export are as follows: Citrus sinensis (sweet orange), C. grandis (= C. maxima) cv. guanximiyou (pomelo), C. kinokuni (Nanfeng honey mandarin), C. poonensis (ponkan), and C. unshiu (Satsuma mandarin). This assessment supersedes a qualititative assessment completed by APHIS in 2014 for the importation of citrus from China. This assessment is independent of the previous assessment, however it draws from information in the previous document. This assessment is updated to be inline with our current methodology, incorporates important new research, experience, and other evidence gained since 2014.
