📢Shoutout to #ICBI2023 attendees this week in New Zealand on a forum dedicated to global challenges posed by non-native #invasivespecies! 👀 Might want to have a look at NeoBiota: the renowned title by NeoBiota for all disciplines related to #biological invasions.

The new Special Issue #HOMED_SI "Conceptual and technical innovations to better manage invasions of alien pests and pathogens in forests" gathers publications deriving from the research carried out within the #Horizon2020 HOMED neobiota.pensoft.net/issue/3764/

📣 Exciting news! 🌿🌍 The latest NeoBiota special issue, #HOMED_SI, is out, in collaboration with HOMED, addressing invasive alien forest pests in Europe! Dig into this insightful, much needed research on #pestmanagement! blog.pensoft.net/2023/05/19/new…

Simple summary of our new paper: Tree neighbors -> Invasive pest -> Emerging desease #forest #biodiversity HOMED @AlexStemmelen @INRAE_BIOGECO neobiota.pensoft.net/article/94109/

🆕Latest special issue of NeoBiota & one of the final outputs of HOMED presents new knowledge & practical solutions for holistic management of native & alien #invasivespecies in forest #ecosystems.🌳 #BiodiversityDay #WorldBiodiversityDay blog.pensoft.net/2023/05/19/new…

🧐#Drones & #ArtificialIntelligence could be tree health managers' best friends in #monitoring & detecting emerging & non-native #invasivespecies, suggest results from HOMED, published in a special issue in NeoBiota (more via #HOMED_SI🖱️). blog.pensoft.net/2023/05/23/fig…

Italian school students who took part in a #citizenscience initiative by HOMED found new to Europe #invasive ambrosia #beetles of potential economic importance. Study published in a #HOMED_SI special issue in NeoBiota. #InvasiveSpecies blog.pensoft.net/2023/05/25/bee…

Scientists conducted a worldwide field trial programme using traps with a standardised 8-pheromone blend for the early detection of non-native #longhornbeetles. A database of nearly 400 species trapped with these lures is presented: doi.org/10.3897/neobio… #HOMED_SI #Cerambycidae

With intensive global trade, many #tree parasites are accidentally introduced to Europe in packaging or directly on goods. Thanks to a study from HOMED that we published, we now know more about one of them that also affects humans. eurekalert.org/news-releases/…

Likely introduced in Europe during WWII, a highly damaging #fungus - which causes the "Sooty Bark Disease" in #maples - has already spread to at least 6 European countries, confirm results from HOMED published in NeoBiota. #InvasiveSpecies blog.pensoft.net/2023/06/06/the…

HOMED NeoBiota 🤔Interested in the #ecology & management of #invasive alien #insects & #fungal #pathogens in Europe’s forests? Don't forget to explore the HOMED special issue in the NeoBiota with a total of 16 papers: blog.pensoft.net/2023/05/19/new…. #InvasiveSpecies #InvSp

This #pest detection method can help keep pesky #insects at bay. Check out this fascinating blog post on how #deeplearning and drones are being used to combat #pests and protect trees - based on a HOMED study that we published! blog.pensoft.net/2023/05/23/fig…

Parasitic #fungi can be "practically invisible", which can make detection hard. This is why we're so excited about this new HOMED study that found a promising detection metod for sooty bark disease. blog.pensoft.net/2023/06/06/the…
