	abstract = {Laboratory rearing of the red palm weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus Olivier (RPW) on natural or semi-artificial diets is a problem outside of the RPW{\textquoteright}s native countries because it may be difficult to find some dietary components and/or their preparation is too expensive or laborious. Therefore, we carried out studies on alternative ingredients to prepare more practical and economical feeding substrata for weevil rearing. The life cycle parameters of RPW were tested in the laboratory using the artificial diets of other authors but with the replacement of some components, i.e. a mixture of unidentified cereals with buckwheat alone (Diet 1) or molasses with polyfloral honey (Diet 2). Further tests were carried out on alternative diets, respectively composed of honey, dried coconut cake and oat (Diet3) or commercial apple mousse (Diet 4). Growth time, weight and mortality of R. ferrugineus larvae, and female fecundity were significantly different among Diet 1, Diet 2 and Diet 4, while the pupal period and mortality, adult female longevity and egg fertility did not differ. Diet 3 appeared unsuitable for R. ferrugineus larval survival. Diet 1 was most suitable for pre-imaginal development and female fecundity.},

	abstract = {The genus Bursaphelenchus includes various phytoparasitic nematodes linked to coniferous and broad-leaved trees. Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Steiner et Buhrer) Nickle (PWN) is the most feared species because of its aggressiveness and ability to kill trees of Pinus spp. within a few months. One of the main ways these nematodes spread through the environment is via xylophagous coleopterans; indeed, beetles that frequent healthy trees during their feeding and maturation phases and trees in more or less advanced decline during their reproductive phase are particularly effective vectors. Cerambycids of the genus Monochamus are recognized as vectors of B. xylophilus. In recent years, an increasing number of other phytoparasitic Bursaphelenchus species have been recorded in association with other primary and secondary xylophages of coniferous and broad-leaved trees variably susceptible to attacks by the nematodes. Many of the known xylophage vectors of Bursaphelenchus spp. are present and locally abundant in Europe and they constitute a potential risk of diffusion of these nematodes. Therefore, we conducted a preliminary risk analysis based on the presence of Bursaphelenchus spp. in Italy and the distribution of their potential vectors and host plants.},

In seven wood samples, the collected bark beetles always carried a large number of dauer juveniles beneath the elytra and wings. Six Italian isolates of B. eremus reared in Botrytis cinerea Pets. ex Fr. and three dauer juvenile populations emerged from insects were described in detail using LM and SEM. Comparison between the ITS-PCR of both Italian and German populations of B. eremus is reported together the ITS-RFLP profile of the Italian species. The variability of B. eremus isolates from different bioclimates is discussed and illustrated. Q. suber L. is recorded as new host for B. eremus},

PCR amplification of genomic DNA using primers designed on the basis of the cytochrome oxidase subunit II gene sequence, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis, Successfully detected the immature stages (egg, larva, pupa) and adult of each species. DNA amplification resulted in a PCR product of 462 bp for S. granarius, whereas S. oryzae and S. zeamais yielded a 311 bp fragment. A sequence comparison between the latter species allowed to identify a mutation that was diagnostic between S. oryzae and S. zeamais through a PCR-RFLP protocol. Digestion of DNA resulted in an uncut fragment (3 11 bp) for S. oryzae, two fragments (174 bp + 137 bp) for S. zeamais and 3 bands (250 bp + 160 bp + 52 bp) for S. granarius. Multiplex PCR reaction enabled to differentiate the three species at all life stages also when simultaneously added to and ground with a 50 g sample of wheat kernels. The reproducibility of the results and high resolution as well as the technical simplicity of the developed molecular method demonstrated its usefulness in the diagnosis of Sitophilus spp. and detection of their hidden infestation in wheat.},
