Overview and Recent Advances in Bioassays to Evaluate the Potential of Entomopathogenic Fungi Against Ambrosia Beetles [PDF]
Ambrosia beetles, known for their symbiotic relationship with fungi cultivated within the tissues of host trees, have become significant pests, particularly when they serve as vectors for pathogenic fungi such as Raffaelea lauricola. Given the regulatory

Artificial Selection of Early Emerging Helpers in the Cooperatively Breeding Ambrosia Beetle <i>Xyleborinus saxesenii</i> and Its Effects on Various Life History Traits and Their Fungal Symbionts. [PDF]
In cooperative breeding societies, temporary groups of mature offspring are formed that assist in the rearing of additional brood before the offspring disperse and reproduce independently. It is hypothesized that the delayed dispersal period of helpers will determine the number of siblings that can be reared, thus resulting in an indirect fitness gain.

Long-term demography and spatial genetic structure reveal mechanisms of Sassafras albidum population persistence through clonality. [PDF]
Abstract Premise Vegetative regeneration is a key mechanism of woody plant persistence in forest ecosystems, and the coupled roles of basal sprouting and clonal growth in shaping long‐term population dynamics have been understudied. Basal sprouting replaces stems at fixed ramet locations, whereas clonal growth via root suckering produces spatially ...

A new species of Raffaelea from beetle-infested Leucaena leucocephala [PDF]
Species of Raffaelea (Ophiostomatales: Ascomycota) are obligate symbionts of ambrosia beetles, some of which pose a substantial threat to forest trees.

Nature-Positive Materials Engineering: Carbon Electrodes from Satoyama Biomass. [PDF]
Nature‐positive materials engineering can link satoyama forest stewardship with the design of carbon electrodes for batteries, supercapacitors, and electrocatalysis. By turning underused firewood and charcoal resources into functional carbons, this approach reduces mining footprints while supporting biodiversity, landscape resilience, and regional ...

Raffaelea spp. from five ambrosia beetles in the genera Xyleborinus and Cyclorhipidion (Coleoptera: Curcurlionidae: Scolytinae: Xyleborini) [PDF]
Five undescribed species of Raffaelea (Ophiostomatales), as well as Raffaelea sulphurea, were isolated and illustrated from the ambrosia beetle tribe Xyleborini: Raffaelea sulphurea and Raffaelea sp. A from Xyleborinus saxeseni; Raffaelea sp.

Commodity risk assessment of Quercus robur plants from the UK
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to prepare and deliver risk assessments for commodities listed in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019 as ‘High‐risk plants, plant products and other objects’. This Scientific Opinion covers plant health risks posed by plants of Quercus robur imported from the UK as:
