Abstract Beetles (Coleoptera) are the most diverse group of animals in the world and occur in many environments. In Atlantic and Amazon rainforests, the scorpion-beetle Onychocerus albitarsis (Cerambycidae), can be found. It has venom glandules and inoculators organs in the antenna extremities. Two injuries in humans are reported, showing different patterns of skin reaction after the stings.

Red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus Olivier, is one of the most destructive pests harming palm trees. However, genomic resources for R. ferrugineus are still lacking, limiting the ability to discover molecular and genetic means of pest control. Methods. In this study, PacBio Iso-Seq and Illumina RNA-seq were used to generate transcriptome from three developmental stages of R. ferrugineus (pupa, 7th-instar larva, adult) to increase the understanding of the life cycle and molecular characteristics of the pest. Results. Sequencing generated 625,983,256 clean reads, from which 63,801 full-length transcripts were assembled with N50 of 3,547 bp. Expression analyses revealed 8,583 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Moreover, gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis revealed that these Submitted 5 March 2020 Accepted 29 September 2020 DEGs were mainly related to the peroxisome pathway which associated with metabolic Published 2 November 2020 pathways, material transportation and organ tissue formation.

GİRİŞ Şehirlerdeki yeşil alanlar havadaki zehirli atıkların doğal filtresi olarak görev yapmalarının yanı sıra yaşama alanlarımızın güzel görünümü açısından da son derece önemlidir. Bu yüzden özellikle son yıllarda şehirlerde yeşillendirme çalışmaları artış göstermektedir. Şehir ekosistemlerinde süs bitkilerinin üretimi ve kullanımı, özellikle kuzey yarım kürede genel bir artış göstermekte ve gelişmiş ülkelerde şehirlerde kişi başına düşen yeşil alanın yedi m2 olması istenmektedir. Dünyadaki bu gelişmelere paralel olarak Ankara’da da yeşillendirme çalışmalarına büyük önem verilmektedir. Ankara’da kişi başına düşen yeşil alan miktarı 6.5 m2 civarındadır (Bozkurt 1992). Şehir ekosistemlerinde en büyük sorun, çevre kirliliğine ilaveten düzensiz ve bilinçsiz ilaçlamalardan dolayı doğal dengenin bozulması ve bu dengenin önemli halkalarından biri olan faydalı faunanın yok olması veya çok azalması nedeni ile zararlı fauna popülasyonunun artmasıdır. Coccoidea üst familyasının da içerisinde bulunduğu emici böceklerde bu durum daha da önemli bir boyut kazanmaktadır (Kozerveskaya, 1986). Özellikle süs bitkilerinin şehir ekosistemlerinde fizyolojik stres altında olmaları ve yeşil aksamlarının hava kirliliğinden dolayı yüksek miktarda kimyasal maddeye maruz kalmalarından dolayı coccoid enfeksiyonlarının artışına neden olmaktadır. Bu nedenle ormanlar gibi dengenin çok fazla bozulmadığı alanlarda bulunan ve nadiren ekonomik olarak önemli olan bu türler, şehir ekosistemlerinde önemli zararlılar olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Aynı sorunlar çok yoğun ve sistematik ilaçlamanın yapıldığı seralarda da görülmektedir. Artan zararlı popülasyonu nedeni ile bu tip zararlıların vermiş oldukları zararlar artmakta, ekonomik kayıplara neden olmaktadır.

Received: 9 October 2020; Accepted: 28 October 2020; Published: 30 October 2020 Simple Summary: Several wood-associated insects are inadvertently introduced every year within wood-packaging materials used in international trade. These insects can cause impressive economic and ecological damage in the invaded environment. Thus, several countries use traps baited with pheromones and plant volatiles at ports of entry and surrounding natural areas to intercept incoming exotic species soon after their arrival and thereby reduce the likelihood of their establishment. In this study, we investigated the performance of eight trap colors in attracting jewel beetles and bark and ambrosia beetles to test if the trap colors currently used in survey programs worldwide are the most efficient for trapping these potential forest pests. In addition, we tested whether trap colors can be exploited to minimize inadvertent removal of their natural enemies.
