At the Foothills Research Institute's Mountain Pine Beetle workshop in April 2012, researchers with the TRIA project presented detailed reports about their project. In Part 1, Janice Cooke provided part one of two presentations about how the fungi carried by mountain pine beetle function in trees, and how trees respond - and if there are differences between how lodgepole pine and jack pine respond.
In Part 2, Nadir Erbilgin presents some results from the study related to how jack pine trees react to simulated MPB attacks. Maya Evenden shared some results on measuring mountain pine beetle dispersal.
Janice Cooke is an assistant professor at the University of Alberta, and the Alberta Project Coordinator for the TRIA project.
