Developing a classical biological control program for Agrilus planipennis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), an invasive ash pest in North America (2008, background): “2007), and a solitary, parthenogenic egg parasitoid Oobius agrili (Zhang et al. 2005; Liu et al. 2007).”
Flight Performance of Agrilus planipennis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) on a Flight Mill and in Free Flight (2010, background): “EAB appears to have coevolved with Asian ash trees that exhibit some resistance while native North American species are highly susceptible (Liu et al. 2003; Liu et al. 2007; Rebek et al. 2008).”
Progress and Challenges of Protecting North American Ash Trees from the Emerald Ash Borer Using Biological Control (2018, background): “Ecological studies at field sites in northeast China and the Russian Far East revealed these insect natural enemies cause high mortality of EAB eggs and larvae and play a critical role in suppressing EAB densities in forested areas of Asia [26,64,66,67].”
Population dynamics of an invasive forest insect and associated natural enemies in the aftermath of invasion: implications for biological control (2015, background): “Tetrastichus planipennisi is an endoparasitoid that attacks late (3rd–4th) instars of feeding EAB larvae (Liu et al. 2007), while S. agrili is an ectoparasitoid of the same larval stages (Yang et al. 2005).”
