Dispersal by flight is obligatory for bark beetles in the subfamily Scolytinae. Adult bark
beetles must leave the natal host and fly to seek new hosts for brood production. Because of …

Forests are important habitats that harbor high biodiversity and have great economic value
to humans. These ecosystems depend on saproxylic organisms, which play a crucial role in …

Substantial genetic variation in development time is known to exist among mountain pine
beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins) populations across the western United States …

The mountain pine beetle (MPB; Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins), a major pine forest
pest native to western North America, has extended its range north and eastward during an …

We tested the hypotheses that responses to the mountain pine beetle fungal associate
Grosmannia clavigera will differ between the evolutionarily co‐evolved host lodgepole pine …

Assessments of population genetic structure and demographic history have traditionally
been based on neutral markers while explicitly excluding adaptive markers. In this study, we …

During its life cycle, the tree-killing mountain pine beetle Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins
interacts with phoretic organisms such as mites, nematodes, fungi, and bacteria. The types …

The mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins)(Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
is a significant destructive force in the pine forests of western Canada and has the capacity …

Despite evidence that conspecific lineages may display different climatic tolerances, most
invasion risk assessment tools are calibrated without considering phylogeographic …

Southern pine beetle, Dendroctonus frontalis Zimmermann, is a major native pest of pine
trees in the southeastern United States, Mexico, and Central America. The species' range …
