Beiträge Zum Göttinger Umwelthistorischen Kolloquium 2008 Seit seiner Gründung vor annähernd 25 Jahren hat sich das Göttinger Umwelthis- torische Kolloquium zu einer Einrichtung entwickelt, welche die vielfältigen, Graduiertenkolleg Interdisziplinäre Umweltgeschichte thematisch einschlägigen Aktivitäten des Standortes wie auch des deutschspra- chigen Raumes durch Austausch von Forschungsergebnissen und Sichtweisen bündelt. Von hier haben auch einige Unternehmungen ihren Ausgang genom- men, welche zum heutigen Profil der Umweltgeschichte spürbar beitrugen. Bernd Herrmann (Hg.)

Dieses Konzept schließt eine thematische Bindung des Kolloquiums im Vortragszyklus aus, zum Vorteil für das Ganz der Umweltgeschichte, wie die Erfahrung vieler Jahre zeigt. Thematische Fokussierungen lassen sich im Kolleg besser mit den häufig durchgeführten Workshops erreichen. Das Kolloquium ist kein Ort thema- tischer Beliebigkeit, sondern lebendiges Abbild der überraschend vielfältigen the- matischen und methodischen Zugänge zur „Interdisziplinären Umweltgeschichte“. Der vorliegende Band vereinigt Beiträge zum Umwelthistorischen Kolloquium aus dem Vortragszyklus 2008/2009 (SoSe2008 und WiSe 2008/09), sofern die Vortra- genden keinen anderen Veröffentlichungsort bestimmten oder sonstige Umstände eine Aufnahme ihrer Beiträge in diesem Band entgegenstanden. Der Beitrag von Frau Min.a.D. Prof. Dr. Edda Müller war eingebettet in den Rahmen des Workshops „Umweltgeschichte und Umweltzukunft – Zur gesellschaftlichen Relevanz einer jungen Disziplin“ und wird im Tagungsband gleichen Titels in der Buchreihe des Graduiertenkollegs im Frühjahr 2009 veröffentlicht. Frau Kollegin Miriam Haidle, Tübingen, wurde Anfang 2009 von ihrem Sohn Andris Sokha entbunden. Unter solchen Umständen gelten selbstverständlich andere Prioritäten. Der Beitrag Reichmuth hat ein ungewöhnlich langes Literaturverzeichnis. Autor und Herausgeber waren gemeinsam zu der Einsicht gelangt, dass eine derartige Literaturübersicht dem Forschungsfortschritt sehr förderlich sein müsste, weil Übersichtsaufsätze zur Schädlingsbekämpfung nach wie vor unterrepräsentiert sind. Ich danke allen Vortragsgästen, dass sie mit ihren Beiträgen die Fortsetzung der Kolloquiumsreihe ermöglicht und bereichert haben und darüber hinaus den Ver- fassern der hier abgedruckten Beiträge für ihre zusätzliche Mühe und ihre freund- liche Bereitschaft, ihre Arbeiten für diesen Band zur Verfügung zu stellen. Ein besonderer Dank geht an Frau Kollegin Schumacher, deren Beitrag als öffentli- cher Abendvortrag in den Workshop „Natur als Grenz(E)rfahrung“ eingebettet war, für die Zustimmung, ihren Aufsatz im Tagungsband wie auch in der Kollo- quiumsreihe erscheinen zu lassen. Für Unterstützung danke ich insbesondere der Deutschen Forschungsgemein- schaft, die dem Graduiertenkolleg im Wintersemester 2008 seinen materiellen Fortbestand bis 2013 gesichert hat. Den Autoren und beteiligten Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeitern des Univer- sitätsverlages danke ich, dass sie ein Erscheinen so kurz nach dem Vortragszyklus ermöglichten. Ein ganz besonderer Dank geht an Frau cand.phil. Karina Müller- Wienbergen für die großartige Hilfe bei der Aufbereitung der Manuskripte und ihrer Vorbereitung zur Drucklegung.

Wehner Department of Horticultural Science North Carolina State University Raleigh, North Carolina 27695-7609, USA ABSTRACT Trichosanthes is the largest genus of the family Cucurbitaceae. Its center of diversity exists in southern and eastern Asia from India to Taiwan, The Philippines, Japan, and Australia, Fiji, and Pacific Islands. Two species, T. cucumerina (snake gourd) and T. dioica (pointed gourd), are widely cultivated in tropical regions, mainly for the culinary use of their immature fruit. The fruit of these two species are good sources of minerals and dietary fiber. Despite their economic importance and nutritive values, not much effort has been invested toward genetic improvement of these crops. Only recently efforts have been directed toward systematic improvement strategies of these crops in India. Horticultural Reviews, Volume 41, First Edition. Edited by Jules Janick.

  • Jordan Beans RA RMO Dir
    Importation of Fresh Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), Shelled or in Pods, from Jordan into the Continental United States A Qualitative, Pathway-Initiated Risk Assessment February 14, 2011 Version 2 Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Plant Protection and Quarantine 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Pest Risk Assessment for Beans from Jordan Executive Summary In this risk assessment we examined the risks associated with the importation of fresh beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), in pods (French, green, snap, and string beans) or shelled, from the Kingdom of Jordan into the continental United States. We developed a list of pests associated with beans (in any country) that occur in Jordan on any host based on scientific literature, previous commodity risk assessments, records of intercepted pests at ports-of-entry, and information from experts on bean production. This is a qualitative risk assessment, as we express estimates of risk in descriptive terms (High, Medium, and Low) rather than numerically in probabilities or frequencies. We identified seven quarantine pests likely to follow the pathway of introduction. We estimated Consequences of Introduction by assessing five elements that reflect the biology and ecology of the pests: climate-host interaction, host range, dispersal potential, economic impact, and environmental impact. We estimated Likelihood of Introduction values by considering both the quantity of the commodity imported annually and the potential for pest introduction and establishment. We summed the Consequences of Introduction and Likelihood of Introduction values to estimate overall Pest Risk Potentials, which describe risk in the absence of mitigation.

  • A Microsatellite-Based Identification Tool Used to Confirm Vector Association in a Fungal Tree Pathogen
    Australasian Plant Pathology (2018) 47:63–69 https://doi.org/10.1007/s13313-017-0535-7 ORIGINAL PAPER A microsatellite-based identification tool used to confirm vector association in a fungal tree pathogen D. H. Lee1 & J. Roux2 & B. D. Wingfield3 & M. J. Wingfield1 Received: 28 July 2017 /Accepted: 5 December 2017 /Published online: 18 January 2018 # Australasian Plant Pathology Society Inc. 2017 Abstract Many fungi live in close association with insects, and some are specifically vectored by them. One of the best examples is found in the so-called Ophiostomatoid fungi, including species of Ceratocystis and other genera in the Ceratocystidaceae. Our under- standing of vectorship in these fungi is based predominantly on either their frequency of isolation from insects or the success with which these fungi are isolated from their insect vectors. The fact that Ceratocystis species mostly have casual as opposed to highly specific relationships with their insect vectors makes it difficult to prove insect vector relations. In order to provide unambiguous support for Ceratocystis species being vectored by insects, we interrogated whether genotypes of the tree pathogen, Ceratocystis albifundus, would be shared between isolates retrieved from either infected trees or nitidulid beetles. Ceratocystis albifundus isolates were collected from nitidulid beetles and from naturally occurring wounds on trees in the Kruger National Park (KNP) in South Africa. The genotypes of these isolates were then determined using eight microsatellite markers, and they were compared using a haploid network analyses. A high frequency of Multi-Locus Haplotypes (MLHs) derived from nitidulid beetles was found to be shared with those from wounded trees across the KNP.

  • Coleoptera: Nitidulidae) on Annona Spp
    Scientific Notes 475 EFFECT OF PHEROMONE BAIT STATIONS FOR SAP BEETLES (COLEOPTERA: NITIDULIDAE) ON ANNONA SPP. FRUIT SET J. E. PEÑA1, A. CASTIÑEIRAS1, R. BARTELT2 AND R. DUNCAN1 1University of Florida, Tropical Research and Education Center, 18905 SW 280 St., Homestead FL 33031 2USDA-ARS-Midwest Area National Center for Agriculture, 1815 N University St., Peoria IL 61604 Atemoya, Annona squamosa L. x Annona cherimola Miller, and sugar apple, A. squamosa, have importance for the tropical fruit industry in Florida, but their yields are unreliable. This is so because fruit set is erratic due to highly variable pollination and physiological stress. Flowers of atemoyas and sugar apples initially undergo a fe- male phase during which stigmas are receptive, and later they have a male phase when the anthers split to shed pollen, but the stigmas are no longer receptive (Gotts- berger 1970). This prevents autogamy (i.e., fertilization of ovules by pollen from the same flower) (Nadel and Peña 1994). Most Annonaceae species are cantharophilous (beetle-pollinated), and a few are sapromyophilus (fly-pollinated) or thrips-pollinated (Gottsberger 1985). Cross pollination of Annona spp. can be carried out by sap beetles (Nitidulidae) (Reiss 1971, Nagel et al. 1989, George et al. 1992). In south Florida, nit- idulid pollinators are in the genera Carpophilus (six species) and Haptoncus (one spe- cies) (Nadel and Peña 1994). Gottsberger (1985) suggested that the Annonaceae and other primitive plants with cantharophilous pollination had evolved a specialized pol- lination system by releasing heavy floral volatiles that attract certain beetle species. For example, atemoya flowers open mid- to late afternoon and allow beetles enter.

During a study involving the coffee berry borer, we observed coffee bean weevils emerging from field-collected coffee berries and used micro-computerized tomography (micro-CT) scans to observe the insect inside the berry. Two eggs had eclosed inside the berry, resulting in observations of a newly eclosed adult beetle and a 5th instar larva, each feeding on one of the two seeds. This is the first time since 1775, when the insect was first described, that the insect has been observed inside a coffee berry. Keywords: coffee quality; insect biology; losses; stored coffee; stored product pest 1. Introduction The genus Araecerus Schönherr comprises ca. 75 species [1], with the coffee bean weevil, Araecerus fasciculatus (De Geer) (Coleoptera: Anthribidae), being the most economically important. Chittenden [2,3] coined the name coffee bean weevil and Valentine [1] has published a succinct account on the controversy involving the many different scientific names used for the insect.

  • Diagnostic Protocols for Regulated Pests
    DIAGNOSTIC PROTOCOLS FOR REGULATED PESTS Trogoderma granarium Introduction The Khapra beetle, Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) is a stored product pest of great importance. Its importance lies not only in the capabilities of causing serious damage to stored dry commodities but also that countries having established populations are facing export restrictions. The Khapra beetle is thought to have originated from the Indian subcontinent but has become established in a number of Asian, Middle Eastern, African, and some European countries. It is one of the very few stored product pests that has limited worldwide distribution. T. granarium has very limited ability to spread without human aid as it is unable to fly. It is very important to distinguish between those records which relate to introductions and those of established infestations. The Khapra beetle is established within an area broadly limited north by central Asia, south by the Equator, west by the Sahel of West Africa and east by Myanmar; i.e. the warm dry regions along the Suez route from the Indian subcontinent to Europe. This area includes the southeastern part of the EPPO region. Khapra beetle has been introduced into areas of similar climatic conditions elsewhere particularly the alternative route between India and Europe around Africa. Currently its status in southern Africa is unclear and it may be absent there now. Initially introductions caused severe damage but outbreaks have been local and in most cases have been eradicated. In general, Khapra beetle is only successful in competition with other major stored product pests in conditions of low humidity. It has also established in some areas of unfavourable climate, where it survives only in protected and/or heated environments such as maltings and feedmills, for example in Europe, Korea and Japan.
