Insect herbivory on urban trees: Complementary effects of tree neighbours and predation
Insect herbivory is an important component of forest ecosystems functioning and can affect tree growth and survival. Tree diversity is known to influence insect herbivory in natural forest, with most studies reporting a decrease in herbivory with ...

Enterobacter sp. AA26 as a Protein Source in the Larval Diet of Drosophila suzukii
The Spotted-Wing Drosophila fly, Drosophila suzukii, is an invasive pest species infesting major agricultural soft fruits. Drosophila suzukii management is currently based on insecticide applications that bear major concerns regarding their efficiency ...

Forest management and natural biocontrol of insect pests [PDF]
Current silvicultural practices are under revision as result of changing demands and pressing environmental issues. We compared the monoculture clear-cut regime commonly used during the recent decades in Europe, especially in Fennoscandia, and in North America, with three alternative forest management methods, short rotation forestry, mixed forest ...

Insight into the genetic components of community genetics: QTL mapping of insect association in a fast-growing forest tree [PDF]
Identifying genetic sequences underlying insect associations on forest trees will improve the understanding of community genetics on a broad scale. We tested for genomic regions associated with insects in hybrid poplar using quantitative trait loci (QTL)
