Beginning in the early 1990s, the balsam fir sawfly (Neodiprion abietis) became a significant defoliating insect of precommercially thinned balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.) stands in western Newfoundland, Canada. In 1997, a nucleopolyhedrovirus (NeabNPV) was isolated from the balsam fir sawfly and, as no control measures were then available, NeabNPV was developed for the biological control of...
The potential role of diseases in generating population cycles has often been advocated but has received little experimental support from the field. We introduced a nucleopolyhedrovirus (NeabNPV) into field populations of Neodiprion abietis (Harris), the balsam fir sawfly, to determine its role in the collapse of outbreaks and examine its potential for biological control. This was accomplished through...
