Title: Dynamics of Emerald ash borer influenced by maturation time delays

ثبت نشده
چکیده

Emerald Ash Borer (EAB: Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire) is an invasive species which was introduced to the North America around the year 2002. We assume that the temperature drops will significantly increase the maturation time of EAB. A mathematical model will be constructed to study the effects of temperature variations in the population densities of EAB. The outcome predictions of this study will be compared with those of previous studies.

Failure to phytosanitize ash firewood infested with emerald ash borer in a small dry kiln using ISPM-15 standards.

Although current USDA-APHIS standards suggest that a core temperature of 71.1 degrees C (160 degrees F) for 75 min is needed to adequately sanitize emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire-infested firewood, it is unclear whether more moderate (and economical) treatment regimes will adequately eradicate emerald ash borer larvae and prepupae from ash firewood. We constructed a small dry ...

Effectiveness of differing trap types for the detection of emerald ash borer (Coleoptera: Buprestidae).

The early detection of populations of a forest pest is important to begin initial control efforts, minimizing the risk of further spread and impact. Emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire) is an introduced pestiferous insect of ash (Fraxinus spp. L.) in North America. The effectiveness of trapping techniques, including girdled trap trees with sticky bands and purple prism traps, was t...

Evaluation of heat treatment schedules for emerald ash borer (Coleoptera: Buprestidae).

The thermotolerance of the emerald ash borer, Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), was evaluated by subjecting larvae and prepupae to a number of time-temperature regimes. Three independent experiments were conducted during 2006 and 2007 by heating emerald ash borer infested firewood in laboratory ovens. Heat treatments were established based on the internal wood temperature...

White Fringetree as a Novel Larval Host for Emerald Ash Borer.

Emerald ash borer is an invasive Asian pest of ash species in North America. All North American species of ash tested so far are susceptible to it, but there are no published reports of this insect developing fully in non-ash hosts in the field in North America. I report here evidence that emerald ash borer can attack and complete development in white fringetree, Chionanthus virginicus L., a sp...
