i5K Comments for Anasa tristis
The Squash bug is a major pest of squashes, pumpkins, zucchinis, watermelons, cucumbers and cantaloupes. Squash bug feeding causes extensive damage to stems resulting in wilting, fruit discoloration and pre/postharvest spoilage. Squash bugs transmit Cucurbit yellow vine disease now rapidly spreading through the west and Midwest. There are few effective biological agents or cultural practices for controlling this highly destructive pest aside from insecticides to which the species has evolved resistance. A continuous colony has been established and RNA-seq conducted to assemble a transcriptome. Kent Shelby
