Ecology of understory and below-ground communities in lodgepole pine forests under changing disturbance regimes
DownloadSpring 2013
As climate changes and disturbance regimes shift, there is a need to better understand and anticipate potential impacts of both natural and anthropogenic disturbance agents on forest ecosystems. Lodgepole pine forests in western Canada are experiencing an unprecedented mountain pine beetle (MPB)...

Effect of Environmental Conditions on Flight Capacity in Mountain Pine Beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae)
Download2020-10-01
Wijeranthna, Asha, Evenden, Maya
Mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) is a major pest of pine (Pinaceae) in western North America. Mountain pine beetle has an obligatory dispersal phase during which beetles fly in search of new hosts to colonize. Climatic factors may influence...

Effect of water stress and plant defense stimulation on monoterpene emission from a historical and a new pine host of the mountain pine beetle
Download2011-01-01
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...

Wijerathna, Asha, Evenden, Maya
The mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins is a major native pest of pine (Pinus Linnaeus (Pinaceae)) in western North America. Host colonization by mountain pine beetle is associated with an obligatory dispersal phase, during which beetles fly in search of a suitable host....

Factors influencing flight capacity of the mountain pine beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae)
Download2014-01-01
Evenden, Maya L., Whitehouse, C. M., Sykes, J.
The mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) is the most damaging pest of mature pine (Pinaceae) in western North America. Although mountain pine beetles have an obligate dispersal phase during which adults must locate a new host for brood...

Global and comparative proteomic profiling of overwintering and developing mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), larvae
Download2012
Keeling, Christopher I., Huber, Dezene P.W., Pitt, Caitlin, Fraser, Jordie D., Bohlmann, Jörg, Bonnett, Tiffany R., Robert, Jeanne A.
Background Mountain pine beetles, Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), are native to western North America, but have recently begun to expand their range across the Canadian Rocky Mountains. The requirement for larvae to withstand extremely cold winter temperatures and...

Growth of understory spruce following mountain pine beetle attack and recalibration and validation of the Mixedwood Growth Model for black spruce
DownloadFall 2018
Effective forest management requires reliable growth and yield models and adequate information on changes in the forest resulting from climate change, insect outbreak and competition from neighboring trees. Growth responses of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) and black spruce (Picea...

Host Plant Chemistry Affects Fungal Interactions, Which Influence the Production of Volatile Fungal Metabolites
DownloadSpring 2019
Mountain pine beetle (MPB) has recently expanded its host range to novel jack pine forests in Alberta. Invasion success of MPB may depend on the outcome of interactions between its primary symbiotic fungus Grosmannia clavigera with other organisms sharing the same host. Among resources-sharing...

Gonzalès, Rodolphe, Parrott, Lael
The resilience of resource-based communities facing natural disturbances partly depends on the capacity of a wide diversity of stakeholders to share their expertise, articulate their efforts, and develop solutions that are both effective and equitable. Structural methods from network theory can...
