Early detection of pine wilt disease tree candidates using time-series of spectral signatures
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Pine wilt disease (PWD), caused by pine wood nematode (PWN), poses a tremendous threat to global pine forests because it can result in rapid and widespread infestations within months, leading to large-scale tree mortality.

Thermal aerial culling for the control of vertebrate pest populations
Scientific Reports, 2023 Helicopter-based shooting is an effective management tool for large vertebrate pest animals. However, animals in low-density populations and/or dense habitat can be difficult to locate visually. Thermal-imaging technology can increase detections in these

Invasive insect hybridizes with local pests [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2018 “Be afraid, be very afraid!” Kate Jones warned me over coffee in London. She is an expert on global emergent diseases. Her work showed that new diseases are on the increase and that they usually originate from contact with wild animals as our species occupies and further exploits natural areas on the planet (1).

Sexual dimorphism of brown marmorated stink bug [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2022 The brown marmorated stink bug is a relatively new member of the Croatian entomofauna, whose biology and ecology are still being researched. The species is known for its polyphagy and is invasive, as evidenced by damage to field, vegetable, and fruit ...

Threat of invasive pests from within national borders [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2010 Predicting and ranking potential invasive species present significant challenges to researchers and biosecurity agencies. Here we analyse a worldwide database of pest species assemblages to generate lists of the top 100 insect pests most likely to establish in the United States and each of its 48 contiguous states. For the United States as a whole, all
