Interspecific Variation in Ash Resistance to Emerald Ash Borer

open access: yes, 2006
Emerald ash borer (EAB) is an aggressive killer of even healthy ash in North America. However, reports suggest that EAB does not devastate ash in Asia, but rather that isolated outbreaks occur in response to stresses such as drought.

Convergent molecular evolution among ash species resistant to the emerald ash borer. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Ecol Evol, 2020
Recent studies show that molecular convergence plays an unexpectedly common role in the evolution of convergent phenotypes. We exploited this phenomenon to find candidate loci underlying resistance to the emerald ash borer (EAB, Agrilus planipennis), the United States' most costly invasive forest insect to date, within the pan-genome of ash trees (the ...

Biological Nitrate Removal With Emerald Ash Borer-Killed Ash and High-Tannin Oak Woodchips

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Two common tree species, ash (Fraxinus sp.) and oak (Quercus sp.), could provide readily available media for denitrifying bioreactors that use wood-based carbon for biological nitrate treatment. However, it is not known if the wood from Emerald Ash Borer-

Fungi associated with galleries of the emerald ash borer

open access: yesFungal Biology, 2021
The emerald ash borer (EAB) is an exotic forest pest that has killed millions of ash trees in the United States and Canada, resulting in an ecological disaster and billions of dollars in economic losses of urban landscape and forest trees. The beetle was first detected in Michigan in 2002 and has spread through much of the Eastern and Midwestern U.S ...

Alternative Survey Methods for the Emerald Ash Borer [PDF]

open access: yesFlorida Entomologist, 2019
As part of an ongoing project to improve survey and detection for the emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis, several field assays were conducted to (1) determine how often traps need to be checked during a given field season, and (2) compare the effectiveness of traps with “dry” (with insecticidal strips or internal funnel) vs.

Genome‐wide SNP identification in Fraxinus linking genetic characteristics to tolerance of Agrilus planipennis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Ash (Fraxinus spp.) is one of the most widely distributed tree genera in North America. Populations of ash in the United States and Canada have been decimated by the introduced pest Agrilus planipennis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae; emerald ash borer), having

Dataset of the physical conditions of Green Ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) in riparian woodlands along the central Platte River

open access: yesData in Brief, 2018
The 2016 discovery of Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis; EAB) in Nebraska warranted an assessment of the physical conditions of ash trees (Fraxinus spp.) across the state. Here we present a dataset of current physical conditions and spatial location
