SOME ASPECTS OF THE EPIDEMIOLOGY OF A MIGROSPORIDIAN PARASITE OF THE SPRUCE BUDWORM, CHORISTONEURA FUMIFERANA (CLEM.)

, 1958
Limited tests indicate that the microsporidian parasite Perezia fumiferanae is restricted to insect hosts of the genus Choristoneura and for practical purposes to the single species Choristoneura fumiferana (Clem.).

Identification and localization of reiterated sequences in the Choristoneura fumiferana MNPV genome. [PDF]

The EMBO Journal, 1984
The genome of Choristoneura fumiferana nuclear polyhedrosis virus (CfMNPV) contained reiterated sequences interdispersed in four locations. These regions, termed RS, were found in EcoRI fragments A, F, E and B. The sequences were identified by hybridization of the fragment EcoRI-A to a Southern blot of EcoRI-digested viral DNA. Further confirmation and

Inducible control of transgene expression with ecdysone receptor: gene switches with high sensitivity, robust expression, and reduced size

BioTechniques, 2005
The ecdysone receptor (EcR)-based gene regulation system is a tool for controlling gene expression. To improve the sensitivity of this system, we evaluated many two-hybrid format synthetic gene constructs in which the GAL4 DNA binding domain was fused to

Life‐History Responses of the Fall Webworm Hyphantria cunea to Temperature Change: Not Following the Temperature–Size Rule

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
The life‐history traits of the fall webworm were examined at 20°C, 22°C, 24°C, 26°C, and 28°C. Larval development time was shorter in males than females at all tested temperatures. Female body weight increased at high temperatures, while male body weight decreased.

Increased retention after harvest better maintains carabid abundance in boreal mixedwood forests under two climate change scenarios

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2541-2554, October 2025.
Our findings suggest that under lower emission scenarios, high‐retention harvesting is an effective strategy to conserve carabids over the next two decades and can increase species' resilience throughout short‐term periods of stress. Under more extreme emissions scenarios, high‐retention harvesting can be used to conserve carabid populations for ...

Spruce Budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana Clem.) Defoliation Promotes Vertical Fuel Continuity in Ontario’s Boreal Mixedwood Forest

, 2018
Spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana (Clem.), defoliation has been shown to affect the occurrence of crown fire in Ontario, highlighting the need to better understand the driving factors of this effect on forest structure, including changes in fuel ...

International Biological Flora: Tsuga canadensis*

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 10, Page 3037-3080, October 2025.
Eastern Hemlock is a long‐lived forest tree of eastern North America known for its deep shade and home given to many organisms. Despite surviving large‐scale clearing for agriculture when Europeans arrived, it returned to dominate when the land was abandoned in the mid 1800s.

Data from: Genome-wide SNPs resolve phylogenetic relationships in the North American spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana) species complex

, 2017
High throughput sequencing technologies have revolutionized the potential to reconcile incongruence between gene and species trees, and numerous approaches have been developed to take advantage of these advances.

Leveraging Biomass Procurement to Mitigate Carbon Emissions at the Stand Level: A Case Study in Eastern Canadian Forests

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2025.
The carbon emission reductions from using residual forest biomass for bioenergy remain controversial, despite its potential to mitigate climate change. This study evaluated how intensifying wood procurement for bioenergy, alongside supplying fiber for conventional wood industries, can support low‐carbon forest management.

Design and Analysis of a Mutant Form of the Ice-binding Protein From\u3cem\u3e Choristoneura Fumiferana\u3c/em\u3e

, 2022
Ice-binding proteins are expressed in the cells of some cold adapted organisms, helping them to survive at extremely low temperatures. One of the problems in studying such proteins is the difficulty of their isolation and purification. For example, eight
