Phytophthora pinifolia sp. nov. associated with a serious needle disease of Pinus radiata in Chile (2008, methodology): “…plantation forestry based on non-native trees clearly lies in dangers surrounding the accidental introduction of pests and pathogens (Wingfield et al ., 2001, 2006; Brockerhoff et al ., 2006), or native pests and diseases that can affect these exotic hosts (Slippers et al ., 2005; Carroll, 2007).”
DNA bar-coding reveals source and patterns of Thaumastocoris peregrinus invasions in South Africa and South America (2010, background): “Accidental introductions and impacts of insect pests of trees appear to be increasing due to global trade and travel ( Brockerhoff et al. 2006; Wingfield et al. 2008).”
Exotic bark- and wood-boring Coleoptera in the United States: recent establishments and interceptions (2006, background): “Similarly, in New Zealand, scolytids were most often intercepted on dunnage and crating and less so on lumber, pallets, and logs (Brockerhoff et al. 2006).”
Effects of biological invasions on forest carbon sequestration (2010, background): “While the damage caused to native forest ecosystems by invasive pests and pathogens is well documented (e.g. Liebhold et al., 1995; Brockerhoff et al., 2006; Loo, 2009), the underlying mechanisms and effects on C sequestration are not.”
Novel associations between pathogens, insects and tree species threaten world forests (2010, background): “Wood products and wood packaging material have been recognised as a major source of pests and pathogens and substantial attention has been given to managing this threat in recent years (Brockerhoff et al., 2006b; Haack, 2006; McCullough et al., 2006).”
Breach of the northern Rocky Mountain geoclimatic barrier: initiation of range expansion by the mountain pine beetle (2012, background): “In addition, human activities may also facilitate range expansions or new invasions, often unintentionally (Brockerhoff et al., 2006).”
Anisotropic spread of hemlock woolly adelgid in the eastern United States (2009, background): “While most invading forest insects and diseases are not particularly abundant and consequently have negligible effects, a few species have become very abundant, and have altered forest ecosystems in profound ways (Niemela and Mattson 1996; Brockerhoff et al. 2006).”
Climate Change and Range Shifts in Two Insect Defoliators: Gypsy Moth and Nun Moth - a Model Study (2007, background): “, where serious concern is given to the matter of forest insect invasions (Brockerhoff et al. 2006).”
Invaders are not a random selection of species (2009, background): “Moreover, introduced insects are very common in terrestrial systems (e.g., Pellizzari and Dalla Monta 1997; Brockerhoff et al. 2006; Causton et al. 2006).”
Increasing numbers and intercontinental spread of invasive insects on eucalypts (2016, unknown): “However, even with such regulations in place, the immense volume of global trade makes the introduction of new pests almost inevitable (Brockerhoff et al. 2006b).”
