Ecological and social factors lead to variation in parental care between sexes in a burying beetle

Insect Science, EarlyView.
We experimentally investigated the effects of ecological (resource availability and interspecific competition) and social factors (intraspecific competition) on parental care and reproductive success in the burying beetle Nicrophorus vespilloides. Our results showed that males and females adjust their parental care based on resource availability and ...

Naturally-Occurring Entomopathogenic Fungi on Three Bark Beetle Species (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) in Bulgaria [PDF]

Pesticidi i Fitomedicina, 2010
Bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) belong to one of the most damaging groups of forest insects and the activity of their natural enemies –pathogens, parasitoids,parasites or predators suppressing their population density,is of great ...

Root decays as a potential predisposition factor of a bark beetle disaster in the Šumava Mts.

Journal of Forest Science, 2003
Root decay infection and potential relations to Ips typographus L. outbreaks in the Šumava Mts. (Bohemian Forest) were monitored in 3 permanent sample plots.

Characterization of the dynamic microbiome evolution across thrips species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Comprehensive survey of the microbiome in thrips. The dominant bacterial genera found in thrips include intracellular ones, such as Wolbachia and Spiroplasma, and extracellular ones, including Serratia, Pantoea, and Acinetobacter. We isolated and sequenced high‐quality genomes of two dominant symbionts, Pantoea dispersa and Serratia marcescens.

Is it possible and necessary to control European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (L.) outbreak in the Białowieża Forest?

Leśne Prace Badawcze, 2017
In response to the information published in ‘Forest Research Papers’ (vol. 77(4), 2016), regarding the problem of the European spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (L.) in the Białowieża Forest, we present our viewpoint on this issue.

Sanitation felling against the European spruce bark beetle: A matter of intensity and forest type Tagli fitosanitari contro il bostrico tipografo: una questione di intensità e tipologia forestale

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Genome and transcriptome‐based identification and expression profiling of chemosensory gene families across developmental stages and tissues in Sirex noctilio (Hymenoptera: Siricidae)

Insect Molecular Biology, EarlyView.
The first draft genome of Sirex noctilio was produced. Fifteen S. noctilio transcriptomes were sequenced to study chemosensory gene expression patterns. SnocOR16 and SnocSNMP1 displayed tissue‐ and sex‐specific expression patterns. Abstract The Sirex woodwasp (Sirex noctilio; Hymenoptera: Siricidae) is among the most destructive invasive pests ...

The diversity of phoretic Mesostigmata on Ips typographus (Coleoptera: Scolytinae) caught in the Karkonosze forest

European Journal of Entomology, 2011
This study determined the scale of the phoresy of mesostigmatid mite by Ips typographus. Thirty pheromone traps in the Karkonosze National Park (Poland) caught 10,575 bark beetles on which there were 2,388 mesostigmatid mites belonging to eight species ...

Therapeutic Bark Gouging as an Effective Complement for the Management of Ips typographus and Pityogenes chalcographus While Preserving Habitat for Secondary Scolytine (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Species

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Norway spruce will likely remain an important tree species in Europe over the next few decades despite efforts to transform forests and reduce its distribution range more to its natural range. Consequently, Ips typographus will remain one of the most relevant forest pests the management of which will become increasingly challenging due to ...

Does bark beetle Ips typographus (L.) die after flying away from the poisoned trap tree?

Central European Forestry Journal
Ips typographus (L.) is the most significant insect pest in the European spruce forests. Methods of control and monitoring are in the period of Ips typographus (L.) outbreaks supplemented with suppressive procedures applying insecticides.
