i5K Comments for Rhynchophorus ferrugineus
The Rhynchophorus ferrugineus is responsible for destroying palm trees all over Portugal and Spain. I am convinced that having its genome sequenced will be very important to strategies to fight it. I am a bioinformatician working in autism; I have worked at the University of the Algarve, in the South of Portugal and have experienced the massive devastation of the Rhynchophorus ferrugineus.
