By: L. Castrillo  n, B. Wiegmann n  & W. Brooks n

author keywords: Alphitobius diaperinus; Beauveria bassiana; darkling beetles; genetic variation; RAPD
MeSH headings : Animals; Botrytis / classification; Botrytis / genetics; Coleoptera / microbiology; Genetic Variation

TL;DR: Assessment of genetic variation within and among populations of Beauveria bassiana associated with the darkling beetle, Alphitobius diaperinus, using RAPD markers found variation present within populations was evident not only in the separation of each strain as a distinct multiband phenotype but also in the separates of strains within a population into separate clusters.

1988 journal article

Establishment of Endoreticulatus N. G. for Pleistophora fidelis (Hostounský & Weiser, 1975) (Microsporida: Pleistophoridae) Based on the Ultrastructure of a Microsporidium in the Colorado Potato Beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

Establishment of Endoreticulatus N. G. for Pleistophora fidelis (Hostounský & Weiser, 1975) (Microsporida: Pleistophoridae) Based on the Ultrastructure of a Microsporidium in the Colorado Potato Beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae). The Journal of Protozoology, 35(4), 481–488.

By: W. Brooks n, J. Becnel * & G. Kennedy n 

topics (OpenAlex): Parasitic Infections and Diagnostics; Plant Disease Resistance and Genetics; Plant Virus Research Studies
TL;DR: Based on the unique nature of the parasitophorous vacuole, a new genus, Endoreticulatus, is proposed for P. fidelis, and the genus is compared with the other genera whose species undergo multisporous sporogony in sporophorous vesicles. (via Semantic Scholar)

Benomyl: Effectiveness against the microsporidian Nosema heliothidis in the corn earworm, Heliothis zea

By: W. Brooks n, J. Cranford n & L. Pearce n

topics (OpenAlex): Parasitic Infections and Diagnostics; Insect and Pesticide Research; Insect Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR: Benomyl was not effective in eliminating infection by N. heliothidis in H. zea -free laboratory colonies of Heliothis zea, and small, isolated centers of infection in various host tissues resulted in a rapid resurgence of the microsporidiosis in pupae and adults. (via Semantic Scholar)
