Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Ips typographus showed lower reproductive output in an occasional host (Pinus sylvestris) under laboratory conditions, and did not prefer its main host (Picea abies) over P. sylvestris in two‐choice bioassays. Abstract BACKGROUND The Eurasian spruce bark beetle, Ips typographus, is one of the most serious pests of Norway spruce (NS, Picea abies), with ...

Using phenology to improve invasive plant detection in fine‐scale hyperspectral drone‐based images
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Using drone‐based hyperspectral images of mixed temperate successional forests collected over a growing season, detection algorithms were produced for three invasive species of interest, which are not only invasive in Virginia but also much of the U.S.: Ailanthus altissima (tree of heaven), Elaeagnus umbellata (autumn olive), and Rhamnus davurica ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Predation by pine martens Martes martes and red foxes Vulpes vulpes is an important factor influencing the population dynamics of capercaillie Tetrao urogallus. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding the relative effects of these mesopredators on the reproductive success of capercaillie. To better understand how various landscape factors influence

Insect Science, EarlyView.Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Ribosomal RNA genes in the genusPinus.I.
Caryologia, 1995 SUMMARYRibosomal gene structure in Pinus pinea, P. halepensis and P. nigra has been analyzed by means of Southern blot hybridization after DNA digestions with Eco RI, Bam HI and Sac I restriction enzymes. Phage cloning, plasmid subcloning and partial nucleotide sequencing of the Pinus pinea rDNA demonstrated that the intergenic spacer (IGS) and the ...

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract The world is experiencing a biodiversity crisis. Steep declines in habitat quality and ecosystem services have resulted in interest in markets to help fund ecological restoration. One way that ecological restoration is assessed is through indicators of ecosystem condition, namely, a measurement of how different a landscape is from its ...
