We present a genome assembly from an individual male Zeuzera pyrina (the Leopard Moth, Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Cossidae). The sequence is 687 megabases in span. Most of the scaffolded into 31 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including assembled Z sex chromosome. mitochondrial has also been and 15.3 kilobases length. Gene annotation this on Ensembl identifie...

leopard moth, zeuzera pyrina l., is a xylophagous key pest in iran. pest has major hosts in orchards. walnut is the main host in orchard trees. other hosts in iran are apple, pear and quince. at present, this pest is active in the middle and eastern provinces of iran. in this study, the efficacy of a new and common method which is mass trapping of male insects by synthetic pheromones was invest...

the leopard moth, zeuzera pyrina, is a key and worldwide pest damaging walnut as well as many other fruit trees during the larval stages. larvae were collected from infested twigs of walnut trees. midguts from larvae were removed under a stereomicroscope and their homogenates used as the enzyme source. larval midgut extracts showed an optimum activity at ph 8.0, 6.0 and 6.0 for ?-amylase, ?- an...
