Fly me to the canopy: Diptera communities in oak forest crowns as bioindicators of stand decline
Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Diptera diversity: Oak decline increases the overall Diptera diversity, particularly in saproxylic and floricolous guilds, likely due to more open canopies and greater deadwood and floral resource availability. Family responses: Dolichopodidae, Empididae, Hybotidae and Anthomyiidae thrive in declining stands, whereas Mycetophilidae and other fungus ...

Dieback of Fraxinus excelsior [PDF]
, 2013 Ash dieback caused by Hymenoscyphus pseudoalbidus (anamorph Chalara fraxinea) is a disease that has emerged during the past twenty years. It was first observed in Poland and has expanded over most of the distribution area of European ash (Fraxinus excelsior) in Europe. This thesis comprises four scientific papers.

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.A unique high‐elevation Exoneura bee defies typical elevation‐driven declines in bee activity, nesting exclusively in dead branches of snow gums near the alpine tree line. Nesting and foraging are tightly linked to snow gum presence, with most activity occurring within 30 m of these trees. Biophysical modelling indicates the bee's thermally constrained

History of Phytophthora cinnamomi management in Western Australia
, 2005 Phytophthora cinnamomi has recently been recognized as a key threatening process to biodiversity in Australia. The impact of this introduced microscopic water mould on destruction of forests and heath land communities has been observed since 1921 in ...

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Flatheaded borers (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) are largely xylophagous insects. Larvae of flatheaded borers tunnel into the trunks of trees, with boring and feeding damage eventually appearing on the surface as discolored bark, sunken areas, bark splits or bark sloughing.

Combined phylogenetic and geographic data can predict plant–pest interactions with high accuracy
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Schematic overview of the study pipeline. Summary Non‐native plant pests can pose major threats to biodiversity, with destructive ecological and economic consequences. The ability to predict future threats would allow limited resources to be concentrated on managing the most serious risks. We built a Bayesian model to predict hosts at risk from Agrilus,

Sensors, 2011 Koa (Acacia koa) forests are found across broad environmental gradients in the Hawai‘ian Islands. Previous studies have identified koa forest health problems and dieback at the plot level, but landscape level patterns remain unstudied.

The Forestry Chronicle, 1965 Maple dieback, a disease condition of unknown etiology affecting sugar maple and other hardwoods in woodlots, was studied over a 6-year period to determine its severity and extent. Data from permanent sample plots showed a consistent recovery trend during this period among moderately affected maple and other hardwood species.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biotic stresses, particularly Verticillium wilt (VW), lead to a global decline in cotton yields. Here, we demonstrate that ectopic expression of ScALDH21, a gene from the desiccation‐tolerant moss Syntrichia caninervis Mitt. and absent in angiosperms, enhances cotton's resistance to VW.
