From beginning to end: the synecology of tree-killing bark beetles, fungi, and trees. [PDF]

Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc
ABSTRACT Over a century of research has revealed an amazing complexity of behaviours and physiological adaptations that allow tiny bark beetles to overcome large trees, sometimes resulting in outbreaks that kill millions of trees. Turning a tree into a home and successfully raising offspring involves constant interactions among the beetles, the tree ...

Relationships between the fecundity of bark beetles and the presence of antagonists

Scientific Reports, 2022
Although previous research has documented the occurrence of antagonists of bark beetles, the studies have only evaluated individual antagonists and have not assessed the overall effect of all antagonists on adult beetles.

Chemosensory System Decoding: Transcriptome-Wide Identification and Expression Profiling of Olfactory Genes in <i>Lytta sifanica</i>. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Lytta sifanica (Coleoptera: Meloidae), a species of significant economic importance, is renowned for its production of the toxic compound cantharidin. In this research, Zhou and colleagues collected specimens of this insect and identified seventy olfactory‐related genes through transcriptomic analysis of adult antennae in L. sifanica. Sequence homology

Recent outbreaks of the spruce bark beetle Ips typographus in the UK: Discovery, management, and implications

Trees, Forests and People
The eight-toothed spruce bark-beetle Ips typographus is the most damaging insect pest of Norway spruce in Europe, and it poses a serious risk to spruce in other countries where it is not currently present but might be introduced. The beetle is not native
