Effect of semiochemical exposure on flight propensity and flight capacity of Dendroctonus ponderosae in laboratory bioassays
Download2021-04-01
Jones, Kelsey L., Evenden, Maya L.
During flight, insect herbivores respond to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released by host and non-host plants or conspecifics. Dendroctonus ponderosae uses chemical cues including host and non-host VOCs, as well as aggregation pheromones to navigate through the environment and find a...

Morphological variation associated with dispersal capacity in a treekilling bark beetle Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins
Download2018-01-01
Shegelski, Victor A., Evenden, Maya L., Sperling, Felix AH
Intrinsic factors influencing the dispersal of insect pests during outbreaks are poorly understood, yet these factors need to be quantified to parameterize dispersal in models that predict population spread. The present study related wing and body morphology of female mountain pine beetles...
