Subject: [IUFRO RG 7.03 FORENT] IUFRO WG Meeting: Biocontrol of forest insect pests and pathogens
Dear all
A reminder of the upcoming meeting of IUFRO Working Group 7.03.13 'Biological control of forest insect pests and pathogens', which will take place at Future Africa in Pretoria, South Africa, from 6-8 November 2019, with a post-meeting field trip from 8-11 November.
Abstract submission deadline is 15 June 2019 and early registration deadline 31 July 2019. The post-meeting field trip will include exposure to South African plantation forestry, including visits to sites with infestations of some of the main pests of pine and eucalypts, and we will also be viewing some of South Africa's amazing fauna and flora. However, let me know as soon as possible if you are interested to attend the field trip as space is limited.
For more information, abstract submission and registration go to https://www.fabinet.up.ac.za/index.php/event/iufro/
We look forward to hosting you at Future Africa!

Dear colleagues,
Attached is the second announcement for the next joint meeting of the
IUFRO working parties 2.02.15 (Breeding and genetic resources of
five-needle pines) and 7.02.05 (Rusts of forest trees), which will take
place in Invermere, British Columbia, Canada, on July 22-26, 2019, with
an extended field trip on July 26-19, 2019. This beautiful site is in
the heart of the Columbia Basin, flanked to the west by the Purcell
Mountains and to the East by the Canadian Rocky Mountains. The attached
announcement provides some details for those interested in either or
both of these working groups.
Registration and call for abstract will be open in a few days.
The Proceedings of the previous joint meeting of these two IUFRO working
parties, that was held in June 2014 in Fort Collins, Colorado, are
available here:
https://www.iufro.org/science/divisions/division-2/20000/20200/20215/public…
Please feel free to disseminate this announcement.
We hope to see many of you in July in British Columbia.

The Garnas lab (http://mypages.unh.edu/garnaslab) seeks two highly motivated graduate students (MSc or PhD) to address basic and applied questions concerning the ecology, evolution, and functional role of insects and fungi in eastern North American forests. Both projects will be funded by teaching and/or research assistantships, or some combination therein. Details of each of the projects will be developed in accordance with project needs and student interests, but generally, one student with strong interests and experience in molecular ecology and another in forest/field ecology will be selected.
To apply for the PhD position you must have Masters degree or equivalent experience, or strong motivation.
The University of New Hampshire and the Department of Natural Resources and the Environment are home to a vibrant community of productive researchers with a strong commitment to student success. Located in the town of Durham, UNH is a beautiful campus surrounded by forest and natural landscapes. Only 30 minutes from the sea and less than 2 hours from the White Mountains, outdoor and other recreational activities abound, including right on campus.
Interested applicants, please send:
- a CV
- a brief summary of research interests and any relevant experience
- a brief statement regarding your motivation for pursuing post-graduate education in the field of ecology and evolution
- contact information for three references
as a single pdf file to jeff.garnas(a)unh.edu<mailto:jeff.garnas@unh.edu>. Positions are open until filled. Start date is negotiable but the ideal student would be able to begin in August or sooner.
**In addition, we are also hiring several Summer field and lab technicians to work on various projects related to the Emerald ash borer, beech bark disease, and other forest health issues in New Hampshire and beyond. Please spread the word!**

Dear forpath and forent colleagues, I promise this is my last message for a while!
I wanted to alert all of you that today Frontiers launched a new journal section, ‘Pests, Pathogens and Invasions’ within Frontiers in Forests and Global Change. Kimberly Wallin (U. Vermont and USDA Forest Service) and I are the Specialty Chief Editors: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/forests-and-global-change/sections/pes…
We look forward to your submissions!
All the best,
Enrico

Dear forpath and forent colleagues,
I apologize in advance for the somewhat extended nature of this message and for duplicate message some of you will get.
A group of us, U.S. academics and representatives of non-governmental organizations involved in forest invasives, have established an advocacy group called Tree Resistance Advocacy Group. It is composed of myself, plus Faith Campbell, President, Center for Invasive Species Prevention; Don Cipollini, Professor, Wright State University; Anna Conrad, Postdoctoral Associate, The Ohio State University; Coralie Farinas, Graduate Student, The Ohio State University; Kamal Gandhi, Professor, University of Georgia; Fred Hain, Professor Emeritus, North Carolina State University and Director, Forest Restoration Alliance; Dylan Parry, Associate Professor, State University of New York, Syracuse; David Showalter, Postdoctoral Associate, University of Minnesota; and Caterina Villari, Assistant Professor, University of Georgia.
As part of our activities, we have produced two, one page documents (attached), meant to be used in science advocacy efforts on behalf of all of us who think that host resistance development and deployment should be at the forefront of our battle against invasive forest pathogens and insects. The two documents can be used in different contexts, depending on the specific user’s goals and they are meant to be complementary.
The two documents differ only in the policy solutions we propose (last paragraph). In 'TRAG one-pager 1.0' we argue for the establishment of a U.S. national task force to determine the best way forward.
In 'TRAG one-pager 2.0’ we are more prescriptive and propose the establishment of Centers for Forest Pest Control and Prevention (CFPCP) within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, akin to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. These are meant to be part of an infrastructure where scientists and managers can work proactively to handle invasives rather than reactively as it is done today, with very little to show for it.
I am asking you to let me know if you would like your name added to the list of signatories on one, the other, or both documents and, if you are members/leaders of an organization, if you would be willing to have your organization endorse the one pagers.
We realize that many of you are institutionally forbidden from engaging in advocacy efforts (e.g. U.S. federal employees). We also realize that these are U.S.-centric documents and ideas. However, we would be thrilled to have any signatories from around the world supporting us in our efforts!
Thank you for considering.
Enrico
