    Red Ring Disease of Coconut Palms Is Caused by the Red Ring Nematode (Bursaphelenchus Cocophilus), Though This Nematode May Also Be Known As the Coconut Palm Nematode

    1 Red ring disease of coconut palms is caused by the red ring nematode (Bursaphelenchus cocophilus), though this nematode may also be known as the coconut palm nematode. This disease was first described on coconut palms in 1905 in Trinidad and the association between the disease and the nematode was reported in 1919. The vector of the nematode is the South American palm weevil (Rhynchophorus palmarum), both adults and larvae. The nematode parasitizes the weevil which then transmits the nematode as it moves from tree to tree. Though the weevil may visit many different tree species, the nematode only infects members of the Palmae family. The nematode and South American palm weevil have not yet been observed in Florida. 2 Information Sources: Brammer, A.S. and Crow, W.T. 2001.

Of the six major plant parts, seeds are the dominant source of human calories and protein.[1] The other five major plant parts are roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits. Most ed- ible seeds are angiosperms, but a few are gymnosperms. The most important global seed food source, by weight, is cereals, followed by legumes, and nuts.[2] The list is divided into the following categories: • Cereals (or grains) are grass-like crops that are har- vested for their dry seeds. These seeds are often ground to make flour. Cereals provide almost half of all calories consumed in the world.[3] Botanically, true cereals are members of the Poaceae, the true grass family.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Rhodnius neglectus is a triatomine that colonizes different palm species. In this study, we aimed to describe the presence of this triatomine bug in the royal palms (Roystonea oleracea) in a rural region of the State of Goiás. Methods: Palm infestation was investigated by dissecting the palms or by using live-bait traps. Results: Two palm trees were infested by R. neglectus negative for Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent for Chagas disease. In the study area, R. neglectus is frequently found in households. Conclusions: The adaptation of this species to palm trees introduced in Brazil for landscaping purposes poses another challenge for controlling the vectors of Chagas disease. Keywords: Triatomine bugs. Infestation. Palm trees. Rhodnius neglectus Lent, 1954 (Hemiptera, Triatominae) is palm trees such as gueiroba (Syagrus oleracea) and bacuri a triatomine bug that mainly inhabits palm trees in the Brazilian (Attalea phalerata) are widely found close to dwellings in this Savanna1-3, Pantanal, and Caatinga biomes4.

Por otro lado su fruto es rico en aceite, por lo que en su zona de origen es utilizado como alimento del ganado porcino. Tiene un majestuoso tronco columnar que puede superar los 30 m de altura y los 60 cm de diámetro, es la mayor de este género. Las bases de las hojas tienen una vaina que abraza la parte superior del tronco formando lo que se llama un capitel, en este caso es de color verde claro y muy decorativo. La hoja es pinnada y de aspecto ordenado, ya que los foliolos se disponen en uno o dos planos a ambos lados del raquis, hecho que la diferencia de otra especie muy parecida y más conocida, la R. regia, que tiene los foliolos más estrechos y en varios planos, lo que le da a la hoja una apariencia plumosa. Son de un verde oscuro por el haz y más claro por el envés. De la parte inferior del citado capitel nacen las inflorescencias, que son ramificadas y portan tanto las flores masculinas como femeninas, por lo que es una planta monoica.
