Ecological Interactions of Bark Beetles with Host Trees
Certain species of bark beetles in the insect order Coleoptera, family Curculionidae (formerly Scolytidae), are keystone species in forest ecosystems. However, the tree-killing and wood-boring bark and ambrosia beetles are also among the most damaging insects of forest products including lumber, paper, and ornamental/recreational trees. The pest status of these beetles has been elevated with th...
متن کاملMutualism and antagonism – Ecological interactions among bark beetles, mites
Symbiosis may be defined as: “the acquisition and maintenance of one or more organisms by another that results in novel structures and (or) metabolism”. Relationships among symbiotic organisms may change over time and ranges of resources. Other organisms may indirectly facilitate or interfere with these relationships. Interactions among bark beetles and their associated fungi and mites are comp...
متن کاملMarine reserves as linked social-ecological systems.
Marine reserves are increasingly recognized as having linked social and ecological dynamics. This study investigates how the ecological performance of 56 marine reserves throughout the Philippines, Caribbean, and Western Indian Ocean (WIO) is related to both reserve design features and the socioeconomic characteristics in associated coastal communities. Ecological performance was measured as fi...
متن کاملSex attractants in frass from bark beetles.
Shortly after Kangas et al. (1) reported that a-terpineol was the major component of a primary host attractant for Blastophagus piniperda L., Silverstein, Rodin, and Wood (2) revealed the identity of three other terpene alcohols that play a role in the orientation of bark beetles. However, Silverstein et al. concluded, from laboratory bioassay, that a mixture of the three terpene alcohols they ...
متن کاملIT Champions as Agents of Change: a Social Capital Perspective
Beyond studies on IT champion characteristics, there is a paucity of theoreticallybased research on the IT championing process. Using an analytic induction strategy, we employ the Social Capital Theory to better understand how IT champions arise in organizations and how they use different sets of tactics to promote an IT implementation. We conducted five case studies, with a total of 87 intervi...
