Does cryptic microbiota mitigate pine resistance to an invasive beetle-fungus complex? Implications for invasion potential
Microbial symbionts are known to assist exotic pests in their colonization of new host plants. However, there has been little evidence linking symbiotic invasion success to mechanisms for mitigation of native plant resistance. The red turpentine beetle (RTB) was introduced with a fungus, Leptographi...
