Research Notes
Comparisons of fall armyworm haplotypes between the Galápagos Islands and mainland Ecuador indicate limited migration to and between islands
The migration of the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is of topical interest because of its recent introduction and rapid dissemination throughout the Eastern Hemisphere. This study compares fall armyworm from island and mainland locations in Ecuador to estimate migration behavior. The Galápagos Islands is a province of Ecuador whose mainland coast lies approximately 1000 km …

Research Notes
The genetic characterization of fall armyworm populations in Ecuador and its implications to migration and pest management in the northern regions of South America
The fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is a moth pest native to the Western Hemispherethat has recently become a global problem, invading Africa, Asia, and Australia. Thespecies has a broad host range, long-distance migration capability, and a propensity for thegeneration of pesticide resistance traits that make it a formidable invasive threat and a difficultpest to control. …
