Impact of pine looper defoliation in Scots pine [PDF]
Widespread defoliation of forests caused by insects or fungi cause economic losses throughout the world. Successful outbreak management involves cost/benefit estimation and requires knowledge of potential yield losses. Currently, such knowledge is scarce.

Bacterial and fungal symbionts of parasiticDendroctonusbark beetles [PDF]
Bark beetles (Curculionidae: Scolytinae) are one of the most species-rich herbivorous insect groups with many shifts in ecology and host-plant use, which may be mediated by their bacterial and fungal symbionts. While symbionts are well studied in economically important, tree-killing species, little is known about parasitic species whose broods develop ...

Automatic traps foster the monitoring and prediction of bark beetle swarming
Automated trap data help bark beetle management to act more timely and targeted, thereby facilitating an effective mitigation of outbreaks. Moreover, the immediate data transmission makes regular manual trap collections unnecessary. While swarming models cannot quantify absolute trap catches without site‐ and trap‐specific calibration, they provide ...

Cambio climatico y eventos epidémicos del gorgojo descortezador del pino Dendroctonu fontalis en Honduras [PDF]
Pine forests, consisting primarily of Pinus oocarpa and P. caribaea, cover some 2.5 million hectares and are one of the principal natural resources and a significant foundation for development in Honduras.

Comprehensive genome and stage‐specific transcriptomes reveal 14,637 genes in Listronotus oregonensis, advancing genetic insights into a key agricultural pest. Compared with related species, L. oregonensis exhibits reduced chemoreceptor gene families but expanded detoxification gene clusters, reflecting its narrow host range and adaptability.

Bark beetles from Dendroctonus genus promote ecological succession and nutrient cycling in coniferous forests. However, they can trigger outbreaks leading to important economic losses in the forest industry.

Divergent Selection on Dispersal Targets Chemosensory and Neuronal Genes in Tribolium castaneum
ABSTRACT Dispersal is key to the life history, ecology and evolution of many organisms and important in pest invasiveness. However, the genetic architecture underlying variation in dispersal behaviour remains poorly understood outside of a few model species.

Seasonal Occurrence of Pine Root Collar Weevil, \u3ci\u3eHylobius Radicis\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), in Red Pine Stands Undergoing Decline [PDF]
A trapping scheme was devised for sampling the pine root collar weevil, Hylobius radicis, in mature red pine plantations in Wisconsin. Adult weevils were trapped throughout the 1986 field season, and the method appears sensitive enough to discern ...
