First record and current status of the brown marmorated sting bug Halyomorpha halys damaging peaches and olives in northern Greece

Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2020
The species Halyomorpha halys (Stål), which is endemic in East Asia, was first detected in North America in 1996 and was probably introduced into Europe in 2008. The species is polyphagous.

Tree Diversity Limits the Impact of an Invasive Forest Pest

PLOS ONE, 2015
The impact of invasive herbivore species may be lower in more diverse plant communities due to mechanisms of associational resistance. According to the "resource concentration hypothesis" the amount and accessibility of host plants is reduced in diverse plant communities, thus limiting the exploitation of resources by consumers.

Invasion of alien macroalgae in the Venice Lagoon, a pest or a resource? [PDF]

Aquatic Invasions, 2020
Alien macroalgae, mostly invasive species, are a constant concern for coastal areas, especially in the northern Adriatic Sea where several taxa have colonized the main transitional environments. A revision of the alien macroalgae in the Venice Lagoon shows that, currently, the number of valid non-indigenous species (NIS) is 29, and this number is ...

The virome of Drosophila suzukii , an invasive pest of soft fruit [PDF]

Virus Evolution, 2017
Abstract Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) is one of the most damaging and costly pests to invade temperate horticultural regions in recent history. Conventional control of this pest is challenging, and an environmentally benign microbial biopesticide is highly desirable.

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

Different genotypes and species of symbiotic fungi mediate the behavioral response of invasive Sirex noctilio fabricius (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

Frontiers in Microbiology
In northeast China, the invasive woodwasp., Sirex noctilio, attacks Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica Litv and often shares habitat with native Sirex nitobei. Previous research showed that S. noctilio can utilize the volatiles from its symbiotic fungus (A.

Insights into insecticide-resistance mechanisms in invasive species: Challenges and control strategies

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Threatening the global community is a wide variety of potential threats, most notably invasive pest species. Invasive pest species are non-native organisms that humans have either accidentally or intentionally spread to new regions.

The effects of invasive pests and pathogens on strategies for forest diversification [PDF]

Ecological Modelling, 2017
Diversification of the tree species composition of production forests is a frequently advocated strategy to increase resilience to pests and pathogens; however, there is a lack of a general framework to analyse the impact of economic and biological conditions on the optimal planting strategy in the presence of tree disease.

Assessing the risk of invasion by a vineyard moth pest guild

NeoBiota, 2023
Biological invasions are most effectively managed when identified in their early stages, which often hinges on robust surveillance programs. The recent invasion of the European grapevine moth (Lobesia botrana) in California suggests that viticultural areas in the western United States may face severe economic consequences from this and other Tortricid ...
