Newly invaded territories by Dryocosmus kuriphilus in Spain and first records of Torymus sinensis in the Sistema Central

open access: yesForest Systems, 2020
Aim of the study: To update the distribution of Dryocosmus kuriphilus, the Asian chestnut gall wasp, focusing on the central area of the country (Sistema Central). Gall samplings of these areas were carried to obtain the first records of parasitoids on D.

Commodity risk assessment of Quercus robur plants from the UK

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 21, Issue 10, October 2023., 2023
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to prepare and deliver risk assessments for commodities listed in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019 as ‘High‐risk plants, plant products and other objects’. This Scientific Opinion covers plant health risks posed by plants of Quercus robur imported from the UK as:

The open bar is closed: restructuration of a native parasitoid community following successful control of an invasive pest

open access: yesPeer Community Journal, 2021
The rise of the Asian chestnut gall wasp Dryocosmus kuriphilus in France has benefited the native community of parasitoids originally associated with oak gall wasps by becoming an additional trophic subsidy and therefore perturbing population dynamics of

Factors influencing short‐term parasitoid establishment and efficacy for the biological control of Halyomorpha halys with the samurai wasp Trissolcus japonicus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 79, Issue 7, Page 2397-2414, July 2023., 2023
High parasitization of Trissolcus japonicus on Halyomorpha halys recorded at release and adventive sites. Both species are favored by the same landscape elements, mediating risk for nontarget species. Abstract BACKGROUND Classical biological control has been identified as the most promising approach to limit the impact of the invasive pest species ...

Local spread of an exotic invader: using remote sensing and spatial analysis to document proliferation of the invasive Asian chestnut gall wasp

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2012
Remote sensing and spatial analysis represent useful tools for modeling species’ dispersal, characterizing the spread of invasions and the invasability of a region, and thus allowing more accurate predictions for developing mitigation strategies ...

Preservation of sweet chestnut genetic resources (Castanea sativa Mill.) against attack by chestnut gall wasp (Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu, 1951)

open access: yesActa Agriculturae Slovenica, 2018
European sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) is one of the most important wood species due to its environmental and economic role in many agro-forestry systems. Chestnut gall wasp (Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu, 1951) is currently the most dangerous

Biological control of dryocosmus kuriphilus yasumatsu with the parasitoid torymus sinensis Kamijo

open access: yesMillenium, 2021
Introduction: The chestnut gall wasp, Dryocosmus kuriphilus Yasumatsu (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae), is a gall inducing insect original from China that attacks the Castanea genus and can significantly hinder production of chestnut trees.

Gnomoniopsis castaneae associated with Dryocosmus kuriphilus galls in chestnut stands in Sardinia (Italy)

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2017
Invasive fungal pathogens and pests of sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.) forests drastically reduce their productivity. The recently described Gnomoniopsis castaneae is one of the main agents involved in the epidemic of brown rot of chestnut nuts ...

Studies on the Resistance of Chestnut Trees (Castanea spp.) to Chestnut Gall Wasps (Dryocosmus kuriphilus YASUMATSU)

open access: yesJournal of the Japanese Society for Horticultural Science, 1975
Various kinds of necroses found in bud tissues of hosts (chestnut trees) were caused by oviposition and consequent gall formation by chestnut gall wasps. Necroses resulted from resisting reaction against parasites were initiated in parenchymatous tissues around vascular bundles which intervened between gall and normal tissues, and were classified as ...

Tree Diversity Limits the Impact of an Invasive Forest Pest.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The impact of invasive herbivore species may be lower in more diverse plant communities due to mechanisms of associational resistance. According to the "resource concentration hypothesis" the amount and accessibility of host plants is reduced in diverse ...
