Effectiveness of Torymus sinensis: a successful long-term control of the Asian chestnut gall wasp in Italy

Journal of Pest Science, 2018
The biocontrol agent Torymus sinensis has been released into Japan, the USA, and Europe to suppress the Asian chestnut gall wasp, Dryocosmus kuriphilus. In this study, we provide a quantitative assessment of T. sinensis effectiveness for suppressing gall wasp infestations in Northwest Italy by annually evaluating the percentage of chestnuts infested by

Tracking the origin and dispersal of the Asian chestnut gall waspDryocosmus kuriphilusYasumatsu (Hymenoptera, Cynipidae) in Europe with molecular markers

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 2018
AbstractThe Asian chestnut gall wasp,Dryocosmus kuriphilus,is an invasive pest causing significant damage to chestnut trees (Castaneaspp., Fagaceae). Originating from China, it has recently invaded a wide range of regions in Europe and North America. Understanding the population genetic structure of important invasive pests is very useful for improving

Hybridization between introduced Torymus sinensis (Hymenoptera: Torymidae) and indigenous T. beneficus (late-spring strain), parasitoids of the Asian chestnut gall wasp Dryocosmus kuriphilus (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae)

Biological Control, 2010
Hybridization between introduced biological control agents and native species is a nontarget effect of biological control. However, the genetic impacts related to introduced insects, especially from the viewpoint of post-release evaluation, remain largely unexplored.

Do Trichoderma treatments affect the Asian chestnut gall wasp (Dryocosmus kuriphilus) and its natural enemy?

Fungi of the genus Trichoderma are beneficial microorganisms with multiple positive effects on plants. Many studies have demonstrated these microbes are able to promote plant growth and improve plant health. In fact, they can stimulate plant defense responses against various plant parasites, such as fungi, nematodes, and insects.
