Pest categorisation of non‐EU Scolytinae on non‐coniferous hosts

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a group pest categorisation for the EU territory of non‐EU Scolytinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) on non‐coniferous hosts, which total 6495 known species. Most species attack apparently healthy, weakened or dead trees, either feeding on the phloem (‘bark beetles’ subgroup) or on fungi inoculated into ...

Ambrosia beetles adjust dispersal preferences to their degree of exhaustion

open access: yesEcological Entomology, Volume 49, Issue 4, Page 489-499, August 2024.
Cooperative breeding in fungus farming ambrosia beetles involves delayed dispersal of sexually mature offspring residing in logs of deceased trees. Wood quality influences offspring's investment in alloparental care, impacting breeder reproductive success. The study experimentally investigates whether dispersing X.

Modular, multi‐barcode amplicon sequencing for improved species‐level detection of fungal phytopathogens: A case study of pipeline establishment targeting the Ophiostomatales

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–February 2024.
In a diagnostics framework, metabarcoding of single, universal molecular barcodes does not discriminate accurately enough for many groups of important fungal phytopathogens at the required species level. In this study, a modular, multi‐barcode amplicon sequencing pipeline was established to provide rapid and reliable diagnostics targeting the ...

Spatial Distribution of Raffaelea quercivora in Xylem of Naturally Infested and Inoculated Oak Trees

open access: yes, 2010
Mass mortality of Japanese oak caused by Raffaelea quercivora due to Japanese oak wilt (JOW) has been tremendous since the late 1980s in Japan. We investigated detailed distribution of R.
