Predicting the Spread of Forest Diseases and Pests [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
Due to severe economic losses caused by forest diseases and pests in China, prediction for the spread of forest diseases and pests has become one of the most challenging and hottest issues. The most previous solutions have at least the following three disadvantages: (1) lacking effective utilization of image data; (2) only supporting one-dimensional ...

Early Detection of Dendroctonus valens Infestation with Machine Learning Algorithms Based on Hyperspectral Reflectance

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The red turpentine beetle (Dendroctonus valens LeConte) has caused severe ecological and economic losses since its invasion into China. It gradually spreads northeast, resulting in many Chinese pine (Pinus tabuliformis Carr.) deaths. Early detection of D.

Genome Sequencing and Analysis of the Fungal Symbiont of Sirex noctilio, Amylostereum areolatum: Revealing the Biology of Fungus-Insect Mutualism

open access: yesmSphere, 2020
Amylostereum areolatum is the symbiotic fungus of the Eurasian woodwasp, Sirex noctilio, a globally invasive species. The mutualistic symbiont is associated with the woodwasp, assisting the damage process and providing nutrition for its insect partners ...

“Pest Forests”, “Utility Forests” and “Cow Bends”

open access: yesRevue d’ethnoécologie, 2022
Small and scattered patches of forests contrast sharply within the context of the flat and monotonous dark green pastures in the Dutch polder landscapes. These patches, with various types of trees, are like little islands, surrounded by ditches. They are not remnants of the original old peat swamp forests but farmers created the patches in the past for

Tree diversity regulates forest pest invasion. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2019
Nonnative pests often cause cascading ecological impacts, leading to detrimental socioeconomic consequences; however, how plant diversity may influence insect and disease invasions remains unclear. High species diversity in host communities may promote pest invasions by providing more niches (i.e., facilitation), but it can also diminish invasion ...

Climate Change and Forest Insect Pests

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractClimate change and the underlying causal factors have been thoroughly described in the scientific literature. Although well understood and documented in general, we are only beginning to understand the effects of climate change on biotic systems, such as insect communities.
