Effects of structure and water state of phloem tissue in Norway spruce on the primary attraction of bark beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae).
Abstract
The following hypothesis is investigated: The release of behaviourly relevant monoterpene-patterns through the intact bark of the stem takes place episodically, and depends on structural, physiological and chemical traits of bark tissues and on microclimatic conditions as well. Special attention is paid: the anatomy, resin duct system, water state, monoterpene content, and temperature, of the phloem, in their topographical and temporal variability within a tree and in their variance due to individual differences. Insects in consideration are Ips typographus and Pityogenes chalcographus.
