Evolutionary tools for phytosanitary risk analysis: phylogenetic signal as a predictor of host range of plant pests and pathogens

Gilbert, Gregory S.; Magarey, Roger; Suiter, Karl; Webb, Campbell O. (2012)

Assessing risk from a novel pest or pathogen requires knowing which local plant species are susceptible. Empirical data on the local host range of novel pests are usually lacking, but we know that some pests are more likely ...
The impact of plant enemies shows a phylogenetic signal

Gilbert, Gregory S.; Briggs, Heather M.; Magarey, Roger (2015)

The host ranges of plant pathogens and herbivores are phylogenetically constrained, so that closely related plant species are more likely to share pests and pathogens. Here we conducted a reanalysis of data from published ...
