i5K Comments for Podisus maculiventris
The beneficial spined soldier bug Podisus maculiventris (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) is a Nearctic generalist predator associated with agricultural and forest environments where it feeds upon eggs and larvae of over 100 species of Coleoptera and Lepidoptera. It is economically important and a high-value biological control agent because of its voracious feeding habits, high reproductive capacity and mass rearing potential. Inbred laboratory colonies reared on artificial diet are available to initiate genomic sequencing. A genome sequence would complement ongoing genetic marker development targeted at more efficient commercial insectary production of this insect. Kent Shelby
