Temporal dynamics and global flows of insect invasions in an era of globalization

Опубликована: Фев. 3, 2025

Human-mediated transport has led to the establishment of more than 6,700 non-native insect species with wide-ranging effects on ecosystems, economies and human health. Understanding how different aspects globalization affect spread insects is crucial reducing their effects. In this Review, we explore current historical patterns, drivers dynamics global invasions facilitated by humans since prehistory. Multiple history have influenced invasion dynamics, including agricultural practices in Neolithic period, advent early empires trade routes, colonization, geopolitical events, wars economic crises. Technological innovations such as steam ships, containerization internet further accelerated invasions. Spatial patterns are characterized frequent secondary via bridgehead populations, asymmetric intercontinental flows originating disproportionally from Europe, biotic homogenization communities. Insect predicted increase dramatically will shift, especially opening routes introduction pathways. Inspection at ports entry detection systems inform mitigation efforts. Future interdisciplinary collaborations integrate knowledge diverse emerging data sources technologies, advancing our understanding biology. Global increasing, driven advances technology.

Forest value chain resilience from a local perspective in five European countries: analysis of predictors and co-drivers

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 7

Опубликована: Янв. 7, 2025

Climate change-associated disturbances such as storms, wildfires, and pest outbreaks increasingly destabilize forest systems, threatening their ecological, economic, social functions. These disruptions impact the value chain (FVC) by causing fluctuations in timber supply, from a quantity quality perspective. This study employed operational resilience framework (ORF) to assess FVC five European case studies (CZ, HR, DE, FIN, ESP), focusing on supply key system variable. A assessment was conducted using thresholds, considering sustainability both ecological economic perspectives. Principal component analysis (PCA) identified three predictor groups that influenced resilience: wood production (WP), harvesting systems (HS), management silviculture (MS). Findings revealed regions with proactive sufficient processing capacities ESP) maintained relative stability despite natural disturbances, while others (DE FIN) experienced prolonged instability due market-driven logging practices limited adaptive measures. The highlighted frequent breaching of particularly during high-volume salvage following bark beetle outbreaks, windstorms, wildfires. results emphasized importance integrating strategies mitigate these impacts. ORF demonstrated potential for operationalizing provided guidance improving preparedness against future disturbances.

Incubating Pallet Wood Samples Does Not Enhance Detection of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus

Among the most concerning threats impacting global forest ecosystems is pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus (Steiner and Buhrer, 1934) Nickle, 1970), causal agent of pine wilt disease. In Europe, effective management this pest requires comprehensive regulatory monitoring strategies, including annual collection thousands wood samples from symptomatic trees their surroundings, inspection packaging materials like pallets, trapping insect vector, Monochamus spp., through national networks. Insects are sent to official laboratories, where latter sometimes incubated at 25 °C for 15 days, aiming maximize probability detection nematode. This study expected elucidate effect incubation process on B. by analyzing pallets green obtained stands, both harbouring nematodes in adult juvenile stages. Additionally, investigation sought assess how presence fungi, which serve as a food source nematodes, enables persist treated pallet that colonized these fungi. The results indicated period unnecessary detecting except when heavily fungi providing suitable nutrition although such occurrences be rare. Furthermore, found no significant differences population growth between two stages nematode’s life cycle. suggests second-stage juveniles present samples, despite not undergoing sexual differentiation, do hinder reproductive capacity xylophilus. risk potential infestation unlikely if treatment has been performed correctly, does contribute increasing PWN. Conversely, trees, significantly enhances detection.

Validating a variable-instar, climate-based phenology model for the Asian longhorned beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) using field data from South Carolina

Environmental Entomology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Abstract The Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (ALB, Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), is a federally regulated invasive species capable of infesting several different genera hardwood trees. Accurate knowledge ALB’s phenology critical for the effective implementation management and eradication plans. We updated ALBLT prediction model used empirical data collected in South Carolina, USA to validate v. 2.0. new largely agreed with ALB life stages found field collections, except late instars pupae. also ran at 8 other potentially high-risk cities contiguous United States latitudes ranging from 28°N (Tampa, FL) 41°N (Chicago, IL) predict how long single generation might take develop these environments. Model predictions ranged 2–3-yr lifecycle Chicago potential cycle < 1 yr Tampa. These can help inform managers specialists should be environments, aid developing an adequate plan.

Diversity in trap color and height increases species richness of bark and woodboring beetles detected in multiple funnel traps

PLoS ONE, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 20(5), С. e0322412 - e0322412

Опубликована: Май 8, 2025

Early detection of non-native, potentially invasive bark beetles and woodboring (BBWB) (Coleoptera: Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, Disteniidae; Curculionidae: Scolytinae) inadvertently introduced to new habitats via global trade is a critical issue for regulatory agencies in numerous countries. We conducted trapping experiments evaluate the effects trap color (black vs. green purple) height (canopy understory) on BBWB Canada, Poland, USA, China, using Fluon-treated 12-unit multiple-funnel traps. Each was baited with same pheromone ethanol lures known attract several species BBWB. predicted composition would differ between vertical strata among colors, that number detected increase greater diversity methods, i.e., by more than one placing traps both canopy understory. Our prediction partially supported, understory different colored did single placed either or canopy. However, combinations colors most varied sites. The community captured significantly affected at all sites, strongest patterns data from Poland USA. Black purple caught similar communities understory, but assemblage Effects richness were consistent across four sites within subfamilies Agrilinae (more any other height-color combination), Chrysochroinae combination) Scolytinae no effect color), Cerambycidae subfamilies.

Tracking the North American Asian Longhorned Beetle Invasion With Genomics

Evolutionary Applications, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 17(11)

Опубликована: Ноя. 1, 2024

ABSTRACT Biological invasions pose significant threats to ecological and economic stability, with invasive pests like the Asian longhorned beetle ( Anoplophora glabripennis Motschulsky, ALB) causing substantial damage forest ecosystems. Effective pest management relies on comprehensive knowledge of insect's biology invasion history. This study uses genomics address these gaps inform existing biosurveillance frameworks. We used 2768 genome‐wide single nucleotide polymorphisms compare A. populations in North America, using genomic variation trace their sources spread patterns, thereby refining our understanding this species' found that most American infestations were distinct, resulting from multiple independent introductions native range. Following introduction, all experienced a genetic bottleneck which was followed by population expansion, few also showing secondary satellite infestations. Our provides foundation for genome‐based tool can be clarify origin intercepted individuals, allowing regulatory agencies strengthen biosecurity measures against beetle.
