Following the plume: Development of a pheromone-based monitoring and management program for Coleophora deauratella (Lepidoptera: Coleophoridae)
DownloadFall 2014
The reliance of moths on pheromone-mediated communication for mate location makes sex pheromones ideal candidates for exploitation in integrated pest management (IPM) programs. Pheromones make sensitive tools that can detect invasive species at low population densities and in new habitats. The...

Genetic population structure of walleye (Sander vitreus) in northern Alberta and application to species management
DownloadFall 2010
Walleye (Sander vitreus) is an economically valuable freshwater fish throughout North America. In Alberta, pressure from sport fishing and commercial fishing make effective management and protection of this species crucial to its sustainability. Walleye from 12 Alberta lakes were genetically...

Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) were among the first large mammals to be assessed for genetic variation in the wild, and they remain a common subject of genetics studies. Although recent advances in genotyping technology have allowed for more accurate determination of population structure and the...

Selection of the sex-linked Inhibitor of Apoptosis in Mountain Pine Beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) driven by enhanced expression during early overwintering
Download2018
Horianopoulos, Linda C., Boone, Celia K., Samarasekera, Gayathri, Kandola, Gurkirat K., Murray, Brent W.
The mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) is an insect native to western North America; however, its geographical range has recently expanded north in BC and east into Alberta. To understand the population structure in the areas of expansion, 16 gene‐linked microsatellites were screened...

Species delimitation in the Choristoneura fumiferana species complex (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)
DownloadFall 2010
Species identifications have been historically difficult in the economically important spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana) pest complex. Morphological, ecological, behavioural, and genetic characters have been studied to try to understand the taxonomy of this group, but diagnostic character...

Abstract The sponge reefs, found only off the coast of British Columbia, Canada, are a unique and alien deep sea ecosystem that is not well understood and is threatened by human activities. Here I developed a genetic barcode to differentiate between the two most common sponges on the reefs,...
