“…Thus, it generally requires dissection of the male genitalia for species identification, a difficult endeavour for non‐specialists. Regarding this, DNA barcoding plays an important and particularly useful subsidiary approach to help differentiate Liriomyza species (Ferreira et al, 2017; Kox et al, 2005; Nakamura et al, 2013; Scheffer, 2000; Scheffer et al, 2006; Scheffer & Lewis, 2005, 2006). Moreover, DNA barcoding facilitates identification of any life history stage of the specimen (e.g., larva, pupa, or adult).…”

The genus Liriomyza Mik (Diptera: Agromyzidae) is a diverse and globally distributed group of acalyptrate flies. Phylogenetic relationships among Liriomyza species have remained incompletely investigated and have never been fully addressed using molecular data. Here, we reconstruct the phylogeny of the genus Liriomyza using various phylogenetic methods (maximum likelihood, Bayesian inference, and gene tree coalescence) on target-capture-based phylogenomic datasets (nucleotides and amino acids) obtained from anchored hybrid enrichment (AHE). We have recovered tree topologies that are nearly congruent across all data types and methods, and individual clade support is strong across all phylogenetic analyses. Moreover, defined morphological species groups and clades are well-supported in our best estimates of the molecular phylogeny. Liriomyza violivora (Spencer) is a sister group to all remaining sampled Liriomyza species, and the well-known polyphagous vegetable pests [L. huidobrensis (Blanchard), L. langei Frick, L. bryoniae. (Kaltenbach), L. trifolii (Burgess), L. sativae Blanchard, and L. brassicae (Riley)].belong to multiple clades that are not particularly closely related on the trees. Often, closely related Liriomyza species feed on distantly related host plants. We reject the hypothesis that cophylogenetic processes between Liriomyza species and their host plants drive diversification in this genus. Instead, Liriomyza exhibits a widespread pattern of major host shifts across plant taxa. Our new phylogenetic estimate for Liriomyza species provides considerable new information on the evolution of host-use patterns in this genus. In addition, it provides a framework for further study of the morphology, ecology, and diversification of these important flies.

“…Leafminer flies of the genus Liriomyza (Diptera: Agromyzidae) are one of the main phytosanitary problems in melon (Cucumis melo L.) in the semi-arid region of Northeast Brazil (NUNES et al, 2013), with Liriomyza sativae Blanchard reported as predominant in cultivated areas (FERREIRA et al, 2017;CELIN et al, 2017a).…”

The use of resistant cultivars is an efficient and recommended method for the management of leafminers, which are the main phytosanitary problem in melons. The objectives of this study were to identify the sources of resistance to the leafminer in yellow melon accessions and to determine the resistance inheritance in acession AM-RT. Two field experiments were conducted in the municipalities of Baraúna, RN and Icapuí, CE, Brazil, to identify the sources of resistance. The design adopted was completely randomized blocks with 22 treatments and four replications. In this evaluation, the number of mines per leaf was quantified. The heterogeneity of the studied materials allowed for the identification of the accessions AM-RT and AM-TM as sources of resistance, considering that they revealed zero mines in the two evaluation environments. The accession AM-RT was selected and used to obtain the S1 population (by self-fertilization), S1:2 population derived from S1, and crossing between AM-RT and ‘Goldex’, which were evaluated in a third laboratory trial to determine the genetic control of resistance in that material. By the segregation pattern of the populations S1, S1:2, and the crossing (AM-RT and ‘Goldex’) and the estimation of the chi-squared (χ2) values, which were 1.33, 3.14, and 0.36, respectively, it was determined that the inheritance of resistance was controlled by only one gene with complete dominance. Therefore, in this study, two sources of resistance to the leafminer were identified, and resistance was conditioned by a gene with complete dominance in the accession ‘AM-RT’.

“…The leafminer Liriomyza sativae (Blanchard, 1938) (Diptera: Agromyzidae) is an important pest in the melon crop (Cucumis melo L., 1753 ) in Brazil (Araujo et al, 2013;Ferreira et al, 2017). The larvae of this agromizid consume the leaf mesophyll, causing the reduction of the plant photosynthetic capacity and the total soluble solids content ( o Brix) of the fruit (Araujo et al, 2013;Costa et al, 2017).…”

Opius scabriventris Nixon is an important parasitoid of the leafminer Liriomyza sativae Blanchard in the melon crop (Cucumis melo L.). Knowing the impact of insecticides on this parasitoid may help the integrated pest management, thus allowing recommending insecticides with a lower impact. Therefore, this study evaluated lethal and sublethal toxicities of select insecticides used in the melon crop for controlling leafminers on the O. scabriventris parasitoid. The toxicity of the insecticides was assessed by confining adults of the parasitoid on freshly sprayed plastic containers, under laboratory conditions. The evaluated insecticides were abamectin, chlorantraniliprole, cyromazine, spinetoram, spinosad, in addition to the negative control treatment (distilled water). The sublethal effect of the insecticides was studied through the parasitism of leafminer larvae by surviving parasitoids. Among the evaluated insecticides, abamectin, spinetoram and spinosad were the most toxic to O. scabriventris; while chlorantraniliprole and cyromazine demonstrated low toxicity to the parasitoid, albeit causing reduction in its parasitism capacity.
