Lagerstroemia (crape myrtle) are famous ornamental plants with large pyramidal racemes, long flower duration, and diverse colors. However, little is known about the genetic structure and diversity of germplasm in Lagerstroemia. We genotyped 81 L. indica cultivars, five other species ofLagerstroemia , and 10 interspecific hybrids using 30 simple sequence repeat markers; 275 alleles were generated with a mean of nine alleles per locus. The mean polymorphism information content value, a measure of gene diversity, was 0.63, with a range from 0.25 to 0.86. The mean observed heterozygosity (0.51) tended to be lower than the mean expected heterozygosity (0.67). The mean F-statistics (FST, FIS, and FIT) were 0.05, 0.20, and 0.24, respectively, indicating a high level of genetic variation among cultivars. Clustering analysis based on genetic distance divided the 96 genotypes into three distinct groups, which corresponded with their genetic backgrounds and geographic regions.

Simple Summary: An exotic insect, crapemyrtle bark scale (CMBS, Acanthococcus lagerstroemiae), has spread across 14 states of the U.S. The infestation of CMBS has negatively impacted the growth, flowering, and even fruiting of some Lythraceae plants to various extent, including cultivars of Lagerstroemia indica, L. fauriei, and Punica granatum. This raises concerns that CMBS would threaten other crapemyrtle species and native Lythraceae plants. Understanding the host range and the host suitability for CMBS would help evaluate the potential risks to landscapes and other ecosystems. Information on the host suitability provides beneficial information for breeding resistant cultivars. In this study, we conducted a host range test on six Lagerstroemia species (L. caudata, L. fauriei ‘Kiowa’, L. indica ‘Dynamite’, L. limii, L. speciosa, and L. subcostata) and a native Lythraceae plant in California (California loosestrife, Lythrum californicum) over 25 weeks.

Genetic diversity was estimated for 51 Lagerstroemia indica L. cultivars, five Lagerstroemia fauriei Koehne cultivars, and 37 interspecific hybrids using 78 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. SSR loci were highly variable among the cultivars, detecting an average of 6.6 alleles (amplicons) per locus. Each locus detected 13.6 genotypes on average. Cluster analysis identified three main groups that consisted of individual cultivars from L. indica, L. fauriei, and their interspecific hybrids. However, only 18.1% of the overall variation was the result of differences between these groups, which may be attributable to pedigree-based breeding strategies that use current cultivars as parents for future selections.

  • Management of Insect Pests of Crapemyrtle (Lagerstroemia Spp.)
    MANAGEMENT OF INSECT PESTS OF CRAPEMYRTLE (LAGERSTROEMIA SPP.) WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE ECOLOGY AND BIOLOGY OF ALTICA LITIGATA FALL (COLEOPTERA: CHRYSOMELIDAE) by GRETCHEN V. PETTIS (Under the Direction of S. Kristine Braman) ABSTRACT Japanese beetles (Popillia japonica Newman) and crapemyrtle aphids (Tinocallis kahawaluokalani Kirkaldy) are the two primary insect pests of crapemyrtle. The flea beetle Altica litigata Fall (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) has become an important economic pest of container-grown crapemyrtle (Lagerstroemia spp.) in southeastern United States nurseries in the past decade. Until now, chemical management has been the primary control strategy used by commercial crapemyrtle producers. Ecological and biological information is needed to establish integrated management options for these three economically important pests and particularly for the emergent beetle pest, A. litigata. Identification of pest-resistant crapemyrtle cultivars provides a foundational and immediate pest management strategy. Field and lab, choice and no-choice, multi-state and multi-year feeding trials with Japanese beetle and A. litigata revealed a spectrum of resistance present in the crapemyrtle genome. Cultivars with L. faurei parentage were less preferred than L. faurei x L. indica crosses. Elucidating the mechanisms that impart pest-resistance to currently available Lagerstroemia spp. cultivars provides additional tools for future plant improvement efforts for academic and commercial interests. Leaf color, nutrient content and toughness of were evaluated for correlations with beetle feeding preference. No significant relationships emerged between feeding damage and the leaf characteristics measured. Finally, a better understanding of the basic phenology of A. litigata allows for more precise targeting of pest management efforts. Degree day models revealed that, when averaged among the six host plants examined, larval and pupal development o required 237.3 degree-days (DD) above a threshold of 9.2 C.

Duyfjes (edited by P.W. van Welzen), published by Naturalis Biodiversity Center, The Netherlands, under the auspices of Foundation Flora Malesiana.1 ISBN 978-90-6519-016-1 (NUR 941) Contains a taxonomic revision of Lythraceae for Malesia, i.e. the area covering the countries Indonesia, East Timor, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei Darussalam, The Philip- pines, and Papua New Guinea. W.J.J.O. de Wilde & B.E.E. Duyfjes, Lythraceae, pp. 1–64. Lythraceae, with in Malesia 11 genera, is a well-defined family with the exception of the morphologically deviating Trapa. The largest native genus is Lagerstroemia with 14 species, followed by the (sub)tropical genera Ammannia (7 species) and Rotala (8 species) and the native genera Lawsonia, Pemphis, and Woodfordia (all with 1 spe- cies). The genus Cuphea is represented by 6 introduced species of which some are naturalised. The genera Duabanga and Sonneratia (both formerly Sonneratiaceae), Punica (formerly Punicaceae), and Trapa (formerly Trapaceae) are only shortly dis- cussed as they have been previously treated in Flora Malesiana (see list of revised families).
