Diversity and impacts of key grassland and forage arthropod pests in China and New Zealand: An overview of IPM and biosecurity opportunities

Abstract: For both New Zealand and China, agriculture is integral to the economy, supporting primary production in both intensive and extensive farming systems. Grasslands have important ecosystem and biodiversity functions, as well providing valuable grazing for livestock. However, production and persistence of grassland and forage species (e.g. alfalfa) is not only compromised by overgrazing, climate change and habitat fragmentation, but from a range of pests and diseases, which impose considerable costs on growers in… Show more

“…This includes shifts in insect distribution (Battisti and Larsson, 2015;Ricciardi et al, 2021), loss of biodiversity (Bellard et al, 2014), and associated impacts on ecosystem services (Pedrono et al, 2016). There will also be increased biosecurity impacts as pathways and vectors associated with trade and tourism provide the means to move high impact pests and diseases, rapidly and across vast distances (McNeill et al, 2021;Ricciardi et al, 2021).…”

“…Climate change presents an obvious challenge, not only because there will be more instability in climatic events such as drought or floods, but economically valuable plant species will potentially be exposed to new pests and plant diseases due to range expansion, (Trebicki et al, 2017;Ricciardi et al, 2021), either through natural dispersal or spread along trade and tourism pathways (McNeill et al, 2021). Elevated temperatures will have both negative and positive consequences for biological control (Thomson et al, 2010;Gerard et al, 2013), and plant defense responses to pathogens (Venkatesh and Kang, 2019).…”

“…After germination, seedlings with similar size and healthy appearance were transplanted into pots (H 25 cm × D 20 cm) with soil media. The soil, classified as Haplic Calcisol (IUSS Working Group WRB, 2014), was collected from a typical steppe grassland in Xilingol, Inner Mongolia, China, where M. sativa has been cultivated as forage for many years (Deng et al 2014;McNeill et al 2021). The soil was completely homogenised prior to planting.…”

“…Aphids, an important worldwide pest on alfalfa, is the vector for a range of viruses including AMV, Bean leafroll virus (BLRV), and Alfalfa leaf curl virus (ALCV) [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ]. However, thrips are another major insect pest in alfalfa in China [ 24 , 25 ]. Thrips are equipped with rasping-sucking mouthparts, usually having high reproductive capability and a short generation time.…”
