Spatial Distribution Pattern and Sampling Plans for Two Sympatric Tomicus Species Infesting Pinus yunnanensis during the Shoot-Feeding Phase.
Insects(2023)
摘要
(Hartig) and Kirkendall and Faccoli are two sympatric species that infest (Franchet) in southwest China, contributing to growth losses. Accurate sampling plans are needed to make informed control decisions for these species. We investigated three pine forests within experimental sites in Yuxi, Yunnan province, China from 2016 to 2018. The spatial distribution patterns of two pine shoot beetles during the shoot-feeding phase were determined using Taylor's power law. The optimum sample sizes and stop lines for precision levels of 0.25 and 0.10 were calculated. The model was validated using an additional 15 and 17 independent field datasets ranging in density from 0.06 to 1.90 beetles per tree. and adults showed aggregated spatial distributions. For , sample sizes of 41 and 259 trees were adequate for a of 0.25 and 0.10, respectively, while for a mean density of one individual per tree required sample sizes of 33 plants ( = 0.25) and 208 plants ( = 0.10). The software simulations of this sampling plan showed precision levels close to the desired levels. At a fixed-precision level of 0.25, sampling is easily achievable. This sampling program is useful for the integrated pest management (IPM) of two sympatric species.
