Mahogany trees shape the right-forewing shape and size of the Mahogany shoot borer
The Mahogany trees Cedro and Caoba (Cedrela odorata and Swietenia macrophylla) affect the right-forewing of their unwelcome guest, the Mahogany shoot borer, which could later influence its flying abilities and pest management, a new study shows.Hypsipyla grandella, or the Mahogany shoot borer, has a heavy impact on Cedro and Caoba trees, restricting their plantations.
