Forest Insect Pest Management and Forest Management in China: An Overview
Environmental Management, 2011According to the Seventh National Forest Inventory (2004-2008), China's forests cover an area of 195.45 million ha, or 20.36% of the total land area. China has the most rapidly increasing forest resources in the world. However, China is also a country with serious forest pest problems.

Scandinavian Journal of Forest Research, 2016 With the expected rising temperatures, outbreaks of insect pests may be more frequent, which can have large consequences on forest ecosystems and may therefore negatively affect the forestry sector. In order to be better able to predict where, but not if,

Tree Diversity and Forest Resistance to Insect Pests: Patterns, Mechanisms, and Prospects [PDF]
Annual Review of Entomology, 2021 Ecological research conducted over the past five decades has shown that increasing tree species richness at forest stands can improve tree resistance to insect pest damage. However, the commonality of this finding is still under debate. In this review, we provide a quantitative assessment (i.e., a meta-analysis) of tree diversity effects on insect ...

Forests must be managed in ways different from farmlands. In agriculture, a grower is responsible for preparing the soil and selecting, planting, and harvesting the crop. Management options such as fertilization, irrigation, and pest control are available at most every phase of production. Each year a crop is harvested and sold.

Insect pest management in forest ecosystems
Environmental Management, 1983Understanding the role of insects in forest ecosystems is vital to the development of environmentally and economically sound pest management strategies in forestry Most of the research on forest insects has been confined to phytophagous species associated with economically important tree species The roles of most other insects in forest environments ...

The term pest describes those organisms that have a negative impact on human survival or well-being, either acting as parasites; transmitting pathogens; competing with humans for food, fiber, or other useful resources; or just plain annoying them. The term pest, therefore, is highly subjective and reflects the human viewpoint.

Stability of a Model of Nonlinear Forest Insect Pests
2009 Second International Conference on Information and Computing Science, 2009Based on the classical epidemic mode, a new epidemic model of forest which integrates Monochamus Alternatus Hope with Pines was established. The expression of the critical threshold was found. It is proved that, when the critical threshold less than 1, the disease free equilibrium is locally asymptotically stable, and when the critical threshold more ...

Management of pine forests by assessment of insect pests and nematodes
The European Physical Journal Plus, 2021In this work, we discussed the pathways and mechanisms responsible for transmission of nematode from bark beetles to pine trees and vice versa. The deterministic model, treated in this paper, seems quite robust in its qualitative behaviour. In order to check the fidelity of model and its implementation, we took the real data of pines which became ...

Molecular modifications of Baculoviruses for the control of forest insect pests
2001Publisher Summary This chapter describes some of the more recent research in the areas of gene cloning and recombinant viruses, genome sequencing of spruce budworm viruses, and development of cell lines. The insect communities in the forests often contain a rich complex of natural enemies of the insects, such as parasites, predators, bacteria, fungi,
