• Adaptation to stressful environments : invasion success of the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) 

  Margus, Aigi (Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2018)

  Biological invasions, specifically human-induced dispersals, are one of the major threats to our biodiversity and are predicted to increase. Invasive pests provide an opportunity to study whether adaptation to human-induced ...

• Sequencing, De Novo Assembly and Annotation of the Colorado Potato Beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata, Transcriptome 

  Kumar, Abhishek; Congiu, Leonardo; Lindström, Leena; Piiroinen, Saija; Vidotto, Michele; Grapputo, Alessandro (Public Library of Science, 2014)

  Background. The Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) is a major pest and a serious threat to potato cultivation throughout the northern hemisphere. Despite its high importance for invasion biology, phenology ...

• Eco-physiological aspects of adaptation to seasonal environments : the latitudinal range expansion of the Colorado potato beetle across Europe 

  Lehmann, Philipp (University of Jyväskylä, 2013)

• Ecological and genetic factors contributing to invasion success : the northern spread of the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) 

  Boman, Sanna (University of Jyväskylä, 2008)

  Sanna Boman tutki väitöskirjassaan koloradonkuoriaisen potentiaalia levitä Suomeen. Hän selvitti kuoriaisten mahdollisuuksia selviytyä alhaisissa lämpötiloissa ja kykyä sopeutua Suomen viileään ilmastoon.Boman havaitsi, ...

• Northward range expansion requires synchronization of both overwintering behaviour and physiology with photoperiod in the invasive Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) 

  Lehmann, Philipp; Lyytinen, Anne; Piiroinen, Saija; Lindström, Leena (Springer; International Association for Ecology, (Intecol), 2014)

  Abstract. Photoperiodic phenological adaptations are prevalent in many organisms living in seasonal environments. As both photoperiod and growth season length change with latitude, species undergoing latitudinal range ...
