Patterns in the occurrence of saprophytic fungi carried by arthropods caught in traps baited with rotted wood and dung
Download2007
Fungi from approximately 1700 individual arthropods that had been captured in traps set in aspen-dominated woodland in western Canada and baited with coyote dung, moose dung, white-rotted wood, brown-rotted wood and fiberglass were isolated in pure culture and identified. These data were analysed...

Population Structure of Mountain Pine Beetle Symbiont Leptographium longiclavatum and the Implication on the Multipartite Beetle-Fungi Relationships

Roe, Amanda D., Farfan, Lina, Cooke, Janice E. K., Hamelin, Richard C., El-Kassaby, Yousry A., Rice, Adrianne V., Tsui, Clement K.
Over 18 million ha of forests have been destroyed in the past decade in Canada by the mountain pine beetle (MPB) and its fungal symbionts. Understanding their population dynamics is critical to improving modeling of beetle epidemics and providing potential clues to predict population expansion....

Spatial genetic structure of a symbiotic beetle-fungal system: Toward multi-taxa integrated landscape genetics
Download2011-01-01
Sperling, Felix A. H., Hamelin, Richard C., Murray, Brent W., James, Patrick M. A., Coltman, Dave W.
Spatial patterns of genetic variation in interacting species can identify shared features that are important to gene flow and can elucidate co-evolutionary relationships. We assessed concordance in spatial genetic variation between the mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) and one of its...
