Effect of water stress and plant defense stimulation on monoterpene emission from a historical and a new pine host of the mountain pine beetle

Cooke, Janice E. K., Blanchet, F. Guillaume, Lusebrink, Inka, Erbilgin, Nadir, Evenden, Maya L.
The mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae, MPB) has killed millions of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) trees in Western Canada and recent range expansion has resulted in attack of jack pine (Pinus banksiana) in Alberta. Establishment of MPB in the Boreal forest will require use of jack...

Linking genotype to phenotype to identify genetic variation relating to host susceptibility in the mountain pine beetle system

Cullingham, Catherine I., Peery, Rhiannon M., Fortier, Colleen E., Mahon, Elizabeth L., Cooke, Janice E. K., Coltman, David W.
Identifying genetic variants responsible for phenotypic variation under selective pressure has the potential to enable productive gains in natural resource conservation and management. Despite this potential, identifying adaptive candidate loci is not trivial, and linking genotype to phenotype is...

Irruptive forest insect pests cause considerable ecological and economic damage, and their outbreaks have been increasing in frequency and severity. We use a phylogeographic approach to understand the location and progression of an outbreak by the MPB (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins), an...

In north-central Alberta, lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta Dougl. ex Loud. var. latifolia) and jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) form a mosaic hybrid zone, the spatial extent of which remains poorly defined. We sought to refine the genetic and geographic distribution of this hybrid zone in western...
