Vectors of Dutch Elm Disease in Northern Europe

Potential Dutch elm disease vector beetle species were caught with pheromone bottle traps and handpicked in 2019: in total, seven species and 261 specimens were collected. The most common was , but by percent, the incidence of was highest in , followed by and . We analysed the beetles DNA using PacB...

More Information
Summary:Potential Dutch elm disease vector beetle species were caught with pheromone bottle traps and handpicked in 2019: in total, seven species and 261 specimens were collected. The most common was , but by percent, the incidence of was highest in , followed by and . We analysed the beetles DNA using PacBio sequencing to determine vector beetles of . was found on six out of seven analysed beetle species: , S , , , and . The last two beetles were detected as vectors for for the first time. Previous knowledge on the spread of beetles is discussed.
