Detoxification of host plant phenolic aglycones by the spruce budworm.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
This study examines the post-ingestive fate of two host-plant derived small-molecule phenolics (the acetophenones piceol and pungenol) that have previously been shown to be toxic to the outbreaking forest pest, spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana ...

Holocene reconstruction of the spruce budworm outbreak-fire interaction in the mixed boreal forest reveals a peculiar oscillation

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Characterizing millennial and multi-millennial variability in disturbance regimes will be crucial in improving knowledge within the context of a changing climate and the development of sustainable forest management practices in the eastern Canadian mixed

Association genetics of acetophenone defence against spruce budworm in mature white spruce

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Outbreaks of spruce budworm (SBW, Choristoneura fumiferana Clem.) cause major recurrent damage in boreal conifers such as white spruce ( Picea glauca [Moench] Voss) and large losses of forest biomass in North America.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Iridoids and Hydrazine Compounds Against the Spruce Budworm Choristoneura fumiferana

open access: yes, 1996
Note:L'iridoide (-)-spécionine est connu pour son activité contre la larve d'épicéa orientale Choristoneura fumiferana. La (-)-spécionine et certains de ses dérivés ont été synthétisés à partir des iridoides naturels disporubles: aucubine et catalposide.

Observations on the feeding behaviour of late-instar larvae ofChoristoneura fumiferana

open access: yes, 2010
Laboratory observations revealed that late-instar larvae of the eastern spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana(Clemens)) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) spend most of their time spinning, wandering, and resting; less than 10% is spent feeding.

STUDIES OF PHYSIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE ARTHROPOD SECRETIONS: X. SEX PHEROMONE OF THE EASTERN SPRUCE BUDWORM, CHORISTONEURA FUMIFERANA (LEPIDOPTERA: TORTRICIDAE)

open access: yes, 2017
The sex pheromone of the female eastern spruce budworm was identified as trans-11-tetradecenal by a combination of electroantennogram techniques, laboratory bioassays, and chemical analysis. Subsequent field trapping showed that this compound is a potent
