Aggressive tree killer or natural thinning agent? Assessing the impacts of a globally important forest insect
(Elsevier, 2021-03)Invasive insects and pathogens are prominent tree mortality agents in forests around the world, and the magnitude of their impacts is increasing. Comparative studies across multiple populations can be helpful for the ... -
Are the rhizosphere fungal communities of Nothofagus alpina established in two different environments influenced by plant genetic diversity?
(Elsevier, 2020-10)Fungi are one of the most important soil microorganisms due to their abundance and the importance of the ecosystem processes they carry out, like decomposition, nutrient cycling, and the establishment of biological ... -
Can early thinning and pruning lessen the impact of pine plantations on beetle and ant diversity in the Patagonian steppe?
(2012)Pine plantations are thought to negatively impact species diversity and to irreversibly modify arid zones. However, some studies have suggested that through the application of appropriate management practices, the negative ... -
Distribution, Invasion History, and Ecology of Non-native Pine Bark Beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) in Southern South America
(Springer, 2024-01)The growth of international trade, coupled with an expansion of large-scale pine plantations in South America during the second half of the twentieth century, has significantly increased the opportunities for the invasion ... -
¿Donde está la madera estructural?: Estudio de caso en Pino Ponderosa
(2019-11)La calidad de la madera para uso estructural se define por sus propiedades físicas y mecánicas, entre las cuales, el módulo de elasticidad (MOE) es una de las principales. La posibilidad de predecir el MOE, a partir de ... -
¿Dónde está la madera estructural? Estudio de caso en Pino ponderosa
(Programa Nacional Forestales, INTA, 2020-01)Dentro del sector de la construcción, la madera es el material con menor impacto ambiental entre todos los que se utilizan. Es el único material de origen natural, renovable y reciclable. Acompañado por la versatilidad que ... -
Ecology and management of invasive Pinaceae around the world : progress and challenges
(2017-06)Many species in the family Pinaceae are invaders. These species are relatively easy to control because of some of their intrinsic characteristics and because they are highly visible and easy to eliminate. Many Pinaceae ... -
First detection of the cosmopolitan invader Leptoglossus occidentalis Heidemann (Heteroptera: Coreidae) in Argentina
(Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2019-08-12)Leptoglossus occidentalis Heidemann is a conifer seed bug, native to North America. This species is considered invasive and has reached several countries in the Northern Hemisphere and most recently Chile in South America. ... -
Host selection behaviour of the banded pine weevil, Pissodes castaneus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
(Wiley, 2023-08)Pissodes castaneus represents an emerging pest species for Pinus spp. production in Latin America. This species attacks all the cultivated pine species in Patagonia Argentina causing wood damage and tree death. The objectives ... -
Influences of pine plantations on small mammal assemblages of the Patagonian forest-steppe ecotone
(De Gruyter, 2011-08)The management of forested landscapes for biodiversity conservation is increasingly recognized as an important objective in Argentina. However, pine plantations are being established replacing native pristine or human ... -
Insectos de importancia económica y sanitaria. Escarabajos descortezadores de pinos en Patagonia
(Ediciones INTA, 2019-07)Introducidas accidentalmente a la Patagonia, tres especies de escarabajos descortezadores de pinos se han propagado rápidamente, actuando como vectores de hongos manchadores de la madera y causando eventualmente mortalidad ... -
Invasive Insects in Forest Plantations of Argentina: Ecological Patterns and Implications for Management
(Springer Nature, 2020-02)Since the dawn of modern agriculture, humans have selected a few several species from the immense diversity nature has to offer, resulting in the same species being cultivated in very different countries and regions. Crops ... -
Management of Sirex noctilio populations in exotic pine plantations: critical issues explaining invasion success and damage levels in South America
(Springer Nature, 2018-11)Plantation forestry with non-native trees is steadily increasing in the southern hemisphere and alien pest problems are also accumulating, as a consequence of the growing international movement of people and goods. Here, ... -
