- Diversity and evolution of host-species relationship of wasps associated with Neotropical fig trees, AP.R
Abstract
The selection of host plants by insects is determined by several factor and mechanisms. In this context, specialization can be selected when individuals are able to use a given host more efficiently. The association fig wasps (Agaonidae, Hymenoptera) and fig trees (Ficus, Moraceae) is one of the most specialized insect-plant interactions. These wasps use fig inflorescences to lay their ...
- Systematics and phylogeography of neotropical fig wasps (Agaonidae), AV.EXT
Abstract
In this event, Dr. Jean Yves Rasplus will work on a research project about phylogeography of Neotropical fig trees and fig wasps, which we are starting in collaboration. Specifically, Dr. Rasplus will contribute with knowledge transfer and support for the obtention of molecular data with New Generation Sequencing (NGS) methods. At the first two weeks we will have meetings to discuss our...

- Taxonomy, molecular phylogenetics, and evolution of host specialization in two genera of Neotropical fig wasps (Pegoscapus Cameron, 1906 and Idarnes Walker, 1843; Hymenoptera, Agaonidae), BP.PD
Abstract
Host plant selection by phytophagous insects is driven by multiple factors, and even generalist species show preference hierarchies due to the host quality as a resource. The Neotropical Agaonidae wasps represent an interesting model for studying the evolution of host specialization, due to the high specificity of its association with Ficus (Moraceae) and their diversified life historie...
- Genetic structure of two Ficus of species in South America, BP.DR
Abstract
The current distribution of species can be related with past climatic events, which have let genetic signatures in populations. This project intends to investigate, at the continental scale, the spatial genetic structure of two tree species involved in obligate mutualistic association (F. citrifolia and F. pertusa), in order to identify the geographical patterns of genetic discontinuity...
- Biogeography of weevils (Curculionidae: Curculionoidea: Coleoptera) associated with fig trees (Ficus: Moraceae), BP.DR
Abstract
Despite the scattered data from literature about the association between weevils and fig trees, there are strong evidences that these beetles are specialized in using figs for feeding and reproduction. However, little is known about the biology, distribution and evolution of these weevils. The present study aims to known which species of Curculionidae beetles are associated with Ficus i...

- Next-generation sequencing applied to the study of systematics and diversification of neotropical fig wasps (Hymenoptera: Agaonidae), BE.EP.PD
Abstract
The association between fig trees (Moraceae, Ficus) and their pollinating wasps (Agaonidae: Agaoninae, Kradibiinae and Tetrapusiinae) is one of the most renowned examples of plant-insect mutualisms. Due to their highly specific association, phylogenetic relationships of figs and fig wasps have been widely studied, and it has been largely hypothesized that both pollinating and non-pollin...
- Biogeography of weevils (Curculionidae: Coleoptera) associated with figs (Ficus: Moraceae), BE.EP.DR
Abstract
Insects and flowering plants are undoubtedly the most diverse group of terrestrial organisms. They interact mostly through pollination and herbivory which in a long term evolution promoted the diversification of many groups of insects. There is a plethora of examples of broad irradiations of groups of insects on classes of plants, and among these one of the most remarkable are the fig-w...
- Role of the venom gland in fig wasps life histories (Hymenoptera:Chalcidoidea), BE.EP.PD
Abstract
Life history characteristics are highly diversified in Hymenoptera and are directly related to how species interact with each other, being, for example, gallers, cleptoparasites or parasitoids. A large portion of this diversity is represented in the system Ficus (Moraceae) - fig wasps (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea). The system involves wasps from different lineages and with diversified lif...
