Biological control of the chestnut gall wasp with \emph{T. sinensis}: a mathematical model
The Asian chestnut gall wasp \emph{Dryocosmus kuriphilus}, native of China, has become a pest when it appeared in Japan, Korea, and the United States. In Europe it was first found in Italy, in 2002.

Chestnut species and jasmonic acid treatment influence development and community interactions of galls produced by the Asian chestnut gall wasp, Dryocosmus kuriphilus. [PDF]
Jasmonic acid (JA) is a plant-signaling hormone involved in defenses against insects and pathogens as well as the regulation of nutrient partitioning. Gall wasps (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) induce the formation of galls on their host plants, which house immature wasps and provide them with nutrition and protection.

Susceptibility levels of some chestnut cultivars and genotypes to the chestnut gall wasp in Turkey
The Asian chestnut gall wasp (ACGW) is one of the most important pests threatening most Castanea species. The best management strategy against this pest can be establishing new orchards with resistant cultivars along with biocontrol (parasitoid Torymus sinensis Kamijo (Hymenoptera: Torymidae)).

The Diversity of Bacteria Associated with the Invasive Gall Wasp Dryocosmus kuriphilus, Its Galls and a Specialist Parasitoid on Chestnuts. [PDF]
Dryocosmus kuriphilus (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) induces galls on chestnut trees, which results in massive yield losses worldwide. Torymus sinensis (Hymenoptera: Torymidae) is a host-specific parasitoid that phenologically synchronizes with D. kuriphilus. Bacteria play important roles in the life cycle of galling insects.
