Harringtonia lauricola Spread in Sassafras Root Systems in the Absence of Its Vector, the Redbay Ambrosia Beetle (Xyleborus glabratus)

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Laurel wilt is a vascular disease caused by a non‐native pathogen (Harringtonia lauricola) and an associated beetle vector (redbay ambrosia beetle; RAB; Xyleborus glabratus) affecting several members of the Lauraceae family in North America, including the ecologically and culturally important sassafras (Sassafras albidum).

Phenotypic plasticity of Daphnia life history traits in response to predator kairomones: genetic variability and evolutionary potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Cladoceran populations can respond to changing predation regimes by a phenotypical response as well as by shifts in genotype frequencies. In this study, we investigated the phenotypic plasticity exhibited by life history traits of D.

Exposure to predator kairomones influences egg number and size in Littorina littorea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Predator kairomones play an important role in intertidal ecosystems, but knowledge on their potential role in influencing maternal effects is lacking. The aim of this study was to test whether egg production by female Littorina littorea was influenced by

Effects of neonate size and food concentration on the life history responses of a clone of the hybrid Daphnia hyalina ⍥ galeata to fish kairomones [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
S U M M A R Y 1. The influence of fish kairomones on the life history parameters of a clone of the hybrid Daphnia galeata ϫ hyalina was measured in laboratory experiments with small and large neonates at one food concentration.
