• Forest, climate and mountain pine beetle outbreak dynamics in Western Canada. (2006, background): “Unfortunately, a recent study (Bentz et al. 2001) has found a geneticallybased latitudinal gradient in development rates for mountain pine beetle suggesting that there may be sufficient genetic variability in contiguous mountain pine beetle populations to match changes in the climatic environment…”
• Effect of climate change on range expansion by the mountain pine beetle in British Columbia (2003, background): “Unfortunately, a recent study (Bentz et al. 2001) has found a genetically based latitudinal gradient in development rates for mountain pine beetles, suggesting that, in the longer term, southern mountain pine beetle populations that are better adapted to warm temperatures may move North.”
• Climate Change and Bark Beetles of the Western United States and Canada: Direct and Indirect Effects (2010, background): “…of narrow thermal windows that minimize excess physiological costs (Pörtner and Farrell 2008), the adaptation of life-cycle timing to a local climate can result in a genetically predetermined variability in temperature response across the range of a single bark beetle species (Bentz et al .”
• Spatial–temporal analysis of species range expansion: the case of the mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae (2009, background): “The genotypes for other physiological traits in mountain pine beetle, namely development rate and size, have been found to vary according to local thermal regimes (Bentz et al., 2001).”
• Cross-scale Drivers of Natural Disturbances Prone to Anthropogenic Amplification: The Dynamics of Bark Beetle Eruptions (2008, background): “Evolutionary feedback reinforces linkages among traits that allow beetles to adapt rapidly to varying conditions (Bentz et al. 2001, Mock et al. 2007).”
• Mountain Pine Beetle Voltinism and Life History Characteristics across Latitudinal and Elevational Gradients in the Western United States (2014, result): “Male and female adults that emerged later in the season were generally smaller than adults emerging early, also supporting previous findings (Safranyik and Jahren 1970, Bentz et al. 2001, Graf et al. 2012).”
