Effects of jasmonate-induced resistance in conifer plants on the feeding behaviour of a bark-chewing insect, Hylobius abietis
TL;DR: The MeJA-induced resistance did not deter the pine weevils from attacking the spruce plants, but reduced the amounts they consumed at one place, which would reduce risks of girdling and plant death.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induced defenses change the chemical composition of pine seedlings and influence meal properties of the pine weevil Hylobius abietis.
TL;DR: A mechanism by which methyl jasmonate treatment may protect conifer seedlings against pine weevils is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diel behaviour and time budget of the adult pine weevil Hylobius abietis
TL;DR: The present study reveals, in high temporal resolution, the diel feeding and locomotion behaviour and time budget of male and female pine weevils on Norway spruce seedlings.
A rare event - an isolated outbreak of the pine-tree lappet moth (Dendrolimus pini) in the Stockholm archipelago
Christer Björkman,Åke Lindelöw,Karin Eklund,Staffan Kyrk,Maartje J. Klapwijk,Frauke Fedderwitz,Göran Nordlander +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report a recent severe Dendrolimus pini outbreak that was discovered in 2012 on the small island Furuskar in the Stockholm archipelago and present the distribution of the damage on the island as well as a detailed inventory of larvae and pupae on individual trees.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does the pine weevil (Hylobius abietis) prefer conifer seedlings over other main food sources
TL;DR: Support is provided for seedling protection approaches that attempt to redirect pine feeding from planted seedlings to other food sources, such as Norway spruce and Scots pine.
