Optimal strategies for utilizing host plant distributions to slow the spread of plant pests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 2, February 2026.
Containment of invasive species can be made markedly more cost‐effective by prioritizing landscape features that naturally impede spread. Targeting treatments around host‐plant gaps supports a clear operational rule: use mating disruption where densities are low to prevent establishment and concentrate pesticides where densities are high to suppress ...
