Facultative and obligate diapause phenotypes in populations of the European spruce bark beetle <i>Ips typographus</i>. [PDF]

J Pest Sci (2004), 2022
AbstractThe bark beetle Ips typographus is the most destructive insect pest in Norway spruce-dominated forests. Its potential to establish multiple generations per year (multivoltinism) is one major trait that makes this beetle a severe pest. Ips typographus enters diapause to adjust its life cycle to seasonally changing environments.

Climatic and management‐related drivers of endemic European spruce bark beetle populations in boreal forests [PDF]

Journal of Applied Ecology
Abstract Climate change is already reducing carbon sequestration in Central European forests dramatically through extensive droughts and bark beetle outbreaks. Further warming may threaten the enormous carbon reservoirs in the boreal forests in northern Europe unless disturbance risks can be reduced by adaptive forest management.

Training and utilizing scent detection dogs in the identification of the European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus

Silva Fennica
The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) thrives in weakened mature spruce (Picea abies (L.) H. Karst.) stands, causing massive destruction and becoming more abundant in Europe since the late 2010s.

Insight into the genomes of dominant yeast symbionts of European spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus. [PDF]

Front Microbiol, 2023
Spruce bark beetleIps typographus can trigger outbreaks on spruce that results in significant losses in the forest industry. It has been suggested that symbiotic microorganisms inhabiting the gut of bark beetles facilitate the colonization of plant tissues as they play a role in the detoxification of plant secondary metabolites, degrade plant cell wall

Debarking harvesters simultaneously combat the European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus) and conserve non‐target beetle diversity

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
In the face of climate change, the European Spruce Bark Beetle (Ips typographus) breeding predominantly in Norway spruce (Picea abies) led to exceptional amounts of damaged timber in European forests.

The Effect of Sanitation Felling on the Spread of the European Spruce Bark Beetle—An Individual-Based Modeling Approach [PDF]

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021
Sanitation felling is considered as the main measure to protect managed forests from damage due to outbreaks of the European Spruce Bark Beetle. In this study, we investigate the effectiveness of sanitation felling on stopping the spread of a bark beetle

Bioinspired smell sensor to trace pheromone released by the European spruce bark beetle

, 2020
Forests have as a of late become increasingly plagued with bark beetle infestations as a result of climate change. The damage caused by tree killing bark beetles has within recent years seen a substantial increase. Detecting and removing infested trees at an early stage is an essential part of mitigating the spread of and the damage caused by the ...

Small beetle, large-scale drivers: how regional and landscape factors affect outbreaks of the European spruce bark beetle. [PDF]

J Appl Ecol, 2015
Summary Unprecedented bark beetle outbreaks have been observed for a variety of forest ecosystems recently, and damage is expected to further intensify as a consequence of climate change. In Central Europe, the response of ecosystem management to increasing infestation risk has hitherto focused largely on the stand level, while the contingency of ...

Estimating the most effective and economical pheromone for monitoring the European spruce bark beetle

Journal of Applied Entomology, 2021
AbstractIn recent decades, there have been an increasing number of outbreaks of Ips typographus in Europe. A large amount of sanitary felling has taken place, with significant economic and ecological consequences. In order to anticipate such large‐scale outbreaks, an effective monitoring system should be set up.
