Impact evaluation of weed biological control agents - best practice guide
While confirming establishment, prevalence and abundance of released agents over space and time is a crucial milestone for any biological control Post-release impact evaluation is crucial to understanding the overall success rate of a biological control program. Here the effects of grazing, herbicides and biological control agents (Longitarsus echii and Mogulones larvatus) are being monitored o...
متن کاملControl rates of hypertension in North America.
Despite the extensive evidence from epidemiological studies showing that hypertension is a major risk factor for premature cardiovascular morbidity and mortality and from randomized clinical trials showing that this risk can be markedly reduced by antihypertensive drug therapy, hypertension is generally considered to be poorly managed. Surveys performed in the 1990s reported low rates for aware...
متن کاملDetection of European Strain of Echinococcus multilocularis in North America
of the Rickettsia spp. we identifi ed. As shown (2), multilocus analysis with ompA–ompB sequences was highly informative about the phylogenetic relationship between Rickettsia spp. and R. conorii strains (Figure, panel B). In Sicily, R. conorii Malish strain has been characterized in MSF patients (4), and R. slovaca DNA was identifi ed in ixodid ticks (5). However, to our knowledge, R. slovaca ...
متن کاملSoilborne microorganisms of Euphorbia are potential biological control agents of the invasive weed leafy spurge
Leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula-virgata), a native of Eurasia, is a serious invasive weed of grasslands of the northern Great Plains of the U.S. and prairie provinces of Canada. Leafy spurge is very difficult to control with herbicides, insect biological control agents, and other cultural practices. Previous field investigations revealed pathogen–insect interactions on the roots of leafy spurge l...
متن کاملA new species of Aculops (Acari: Prostigmata: Eriophyidae) from Serbia on Dipsacus laciniatus L. (Dipsacaceae), a weed target of classical biological control in the United States of America
A new eriophyoid mite species, Aculops orlovacae n. sp. (Acari: Prostigmata: Eriophyidae) collected from Dipsacus laciniatus L. (Dipsacaceae) in northern Serbia, is described and illustrated, including digital micrographs depicting key morphological characters. Differential diagnosis is provided in comparison with Aculops salixis Xue, Song et Hong, Aculops rhodensis (Keifer), Aculops hussongi K...
