Progress and gaps in understanding mechanisms of ash tree resistance to emerald ash borer, a model for wood‐boring insects that kill angiosperms
We review the literature on host resistance of ash to emerald ash borer (EAB, Agrilus
planipennis), an invasive species that causes widespread mortality of ash. Manchurian ash …

The potential for host switching via ecological fitting in the emerald ash borer-host plant system
The traits used by phytophagous insects to find and utilize their ancestral hosts can lead to
host range expansions, generally to closely related hosts that share visual and chemical …

[PDF][PDF] Urban trees facilitate the establishment of non-native forest insects
Cities, due to the presence of ports and airports and the high diversity of trees in streets,
parks, and gardens, may play an important role for the introduction of invasive forest pests …

Defence syndromes in lodgepole–whitebark pine ecosystems relate to degree of historical exposure to mountain pine beetles
Warming climate is allowing tree‐killing bark beetles to expand their ranges and access

A glimmer of hope–ash genotypes with increased resistance to ash dieback pathogen show cross‐resistance to emerald ash borer
Plants rely on cross‐resistance traits to defend against multiple, phylogenetically distinct
enemies. These traits are often the result of long co‐evolutionary histories. Biological …

Combined biotic stresses trigger similar transcriptomic responses but contrasting resistance against a chewing herbivore in Brassica nigra
Background In nature, plants are frequently exposed to simultaneous biotic stresses that
activate distinct and often antagonistic defense signaling pathways. How plants integrate …
