i5K Comments for Zabrotes subfasciatus
Since it feeds on stored grains of the common bean Phaseolus vulgaris, a major source of protein in Latin America and Africa, it has great economic and social importance. Together with Tribolium, Callosobruchus and Acanthoscelides species, it also allows evolutionary approaches in studying insect-plant interactions. Genetic material can be obtained from experimental populations in Federal University of Alfenas and/or Ifsuldeminas, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Angel Roberto Barchuk
