Molecular Surveillance of Honey Bee Hives Using eDNA Metabarcoding During Pollination Season

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
Healthy honey bees are critical in safeguarding our food supply, but monitoring their health may present a significant challenge. Here, we used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding on bee hive debris and detected species of arthropods, bacteria and fungi contributing to form the bee hive environment, including hive pests and pathogens as well as hive

Evaluating semiochemical‐based strategies for managing ambrosia beetles in apple orchards

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 697-706, November 2025.
Abstract Ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) have emerged as problematic pests in Michigan apple orchards, where their cryptic lifestyle complicates effective management. This study evaluated the efficacy of semiochemical‐based repellents in mitigating beetle infestations, focusing on two key invasive species: Xylosandrus germanus ...

Investigating bark, ambrosia and nitidulid beetle (Coleoptera: Scolytinae and Nitidulidae) communities and their potential role in the movement of Ceratocystis manginecans in commercial forestry plantations in Riau, Indonesia

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 707-722, November 2025.
Beetles and beetle frass can harbour Ceratocystis propagules. The viability of the propagules and the ability of the beetles and/or beetle frass to spread C. manginecans requires further investigation. An interaction exists between infected trees and wood‐dwelling beetles, and this interaction differs between Acacia and Eucalyptus.

Pest categorisation of non‐EU Scolytinae of coniferous hosts

EFSA Journal, 2020
The Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of non‐EU Scolytinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) of coniferous hosts (hereafter NESC). NESC occur worldwide, and some species are important forest pests.
