Host Gall Size and Temperature Influence Voltinism in an Exotic Parasitoid

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Insect phenology is highly temperature-dependent. Higher temperatures can lead to earlier emergence and lengthening of the active period, which enable many insect groups to complete more generations.

The FORGENIUS Genomic Resources: New Genotyping Tools and Genomic Data for 23 Forest Tree Species and Their Genetic Conservation Units

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic diversity is a critical but often overlooked component of biological diversity. The European H2020 FORGENIUS project is aimed at increasing the quality and quantity of genetic data to start monitoring the European network of forest Genetic Conservation Units (GCUs).

Assessing the success of a horizon scanning approach in predicting invasive non‐native species arrival

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 1, January 2026.
We conclude that horizon scanning provides a rapid, affordable and successful mechanism to predict the arrival of high‐risk INNS. We highlight the importance of citizen science, including biological recording, and of local expertise for detecting and documenting arrival of INNS.

Rapid on-site identification of the biocontrol agent of the Asian chestnut gall wasp [PDF]

Biocontrol Science and Technology, 2016
In classical biocontrol programmes, a rapid and correct identification of the introduced antagonist is a key issue during both the release and establishment monitoring phases. It is often difficult to distinguish morphologically cryptic species or immature stages. An accurate diagnosis can now be provided by molecular diagnostic methods.
