Book Description
Insect-induced galls in plants represent highly regulated growth manifestations in response to insect feeding or egg laying. Physiological changes and signal-activated reactions in plants result in the expression of galls that serve the nutritional and shelter needs of the inducing insect. Variations in differentiation patterns occur in galls induced by insects of different taxonomic groups. Fascinating diversity of gall-inducing insects and their galls has attracted attention of many researchers. In some instances plants suffer extensive damage affecting their performance and productivity and even experience death. Keeping these aspects in mind the present volume highlights the current situation of gall inducing arthropods on forest trees, a reassessment in terms of their status, associated natural enemies, spread to other related and unrelated plants particularly forest tree species. The chapters provide insights into the interactions of some of the gall inducing insect species with trees.

Neotropical Insect Galls
Author: Geraldo Wilson Fernandes
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9401787832
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 547
Book Description
The book brings to light the most recent findings on the biogeography, biodiversity, host plant induction and natural history of gall inducing insects in the Neotropical region. We attempt to summarize the work done so far in the region, promote several syntheses on many aspects such as host induction, host specialization, distribution among the several vegetation types and zones, the origin of super hosts and the mechanisms leading to geographical patterns in their distribution. Furthermore, the book constructs new perspectives for deeper understanding of galling insect evolutionary ecology and biogeopgraphy in the region.

Publisher: Createspace Independent Pub
ISBN: 9781480165168
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
This publication explores many facets of the ever intriguing and enigmatic relationships between plants and their gall-forming herbivores. The research reported herein ranges from studies on classical biology and systematics of galling to molecular phylogeny, population genetics, and ecological and evolutionary theory. Human kind has much to learn and gain from understanding the fine details of how plants and their gallers interact. This publication is the result of an international symposium that was held August, 1997 in Hungary. It was organized under the guidelines of the International Union of Forestry Research Organizations by the Hungarian Forest Research Institute, Department of Forest Protection, and the North Central Research Station of the US Forest Service.

Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
This book addresses recent developments in the ecology, evolution, systematics, physiology, and biodiversity of gall-inducing arthropods, with individual contributions ranging in scope from detailed descriptions to profoundly synthetic studies. One underlying theme is the various impacts of gall induction that indirectly affect insect communities on the host plant. The other important contribution is the highly intricate and dynamic interactions between galling arthropods and their uniquely specialized host plants.
