New
Regulations Proposed by U.S. Department of Agriculture to Help Stem the
Tide of Non-Native Pests (Oct 15, 2009)
The Nature Conservancy.
The Nature Conservancy, working with industry partners
and scientists, is supporting revamped regulations proposed by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture to improve its ongoing efforts to block
non-native insects and diseases from entering the country and protect
American homeowners, businesses, agriculture and native trees. The Nature
Conservancy provides information on how to prevent the introduction and
spread of invasive foreign pests and diseases.

Shaping
the Future of America's Outdoor Resources (Oct
6, 2009)
Resources for the Future.
The new study The
State of the Great Outdoors: America's Parks, Public Lands, and Recreation
Resources (2009; PDF | 11. 2 MB), looks at the status of America's
outdoor resources, the demand for recreation, and the financing of conservation,
parks, and open space. The issues of concern include climate change. Invasive
species
present another problem that can cause deterioration in the quality of outdoor
resources. Moreover, diversion of financial resources to deal with invasive
species may end
up creating problems at visitor centers, campgrounds, picnic areas, and a
host of other public facilities.

Report Documents the Risks of
Giant Invasive Snakes in the U.S. (Oct
13, 2009)
DOI. United
States Geological Survey.
Five giant non-native snake species would pose high risks to the health
of ecosystems in the United States should they become established here,
according to a USGS report
released. The
report details the risks of nine non-native boa, anaconda and python
species that are invasive or potentially invasive in the U.S. Because
all nine species share characteristics associated with greater risks,
none was found to be a low ecological risk. Two of these species are
documented as reproducing in the wild in South Florida, with population
estimates for Burmese pythons in the tens of thousands.

In
Search of Wildlife-friendly Biofuels: Are Native Prairie Plants the Answer? (Oct
1, 2009)
Michigan Technological University.
In the new study Bioenergy
and Wildlife: Threats and Opportunities for Grassland Conservation,
(Abstract - BioScience, Oct 2009) the authors analyze the impacts
on wildlife of the burgeoning conversion of grasslands to corn for ethanol
production. One potential solution to the threat on wildlife habitat
is using diverse native prairie plants to produce bioenergy instead of
a single agricultural crop like corn.

Genome
of Irish potato famine pathogen decoded (Sep
9, 2009)
Broad Institute.
A large international research team has decoded the genome of the notorious
organism that triggered the Irish potato famine in the mid-19th century
and now threatens this season's tomato and potato crops across
much of the U.S. Phytophthora
infestans, also known
as the late blight pathogen, remains a major threat to world food security.
This sequencing is a major breakthrough that will accelerate the design
of more sustainable control strategies to combat one of the most challenging
pathogens threatening global food security.

Study
Finds One-Time Herbicide Use Decreased Native Plants, May Have Increased
Invasive Plants (Sep 29, 2009)
Montana State University.
A new study shows that the application of a
herbicide on the invasive weed leafy
spurge 16 years ago had reduced the level of native wildflowers --
including Missouri goldenrod and yarrow and the targeted invasive weed
(leafy spurge) had potentially increased. The study Control
Effort Exacerbates Invasive-Species Problem is published in Ecological
Applications (Jan 2009).

Across
the Country, Invasive Pest Species Are Causing Problems (Sep 24,
2009)
National Pest Management Association.
Conservative estimates by the Smithsonian
Institution put the number of known insect species found in the United
States at more than 91,000 -- not
including an additional 73,000 unidentified species. These numbers are
likely to climb as increased international travel and shipping provide
a means for foreign insects (invasive species), to more easily infiltrate
the country. The National Pest Management Association urges vigilance
against invasive species.

Invasive
Species on the March: Variable Rates of Spread Set Current Limits to
Predictability (Sep
17, 2009)
National Science Foundation.
In a paper published in this week's issue of the journal Science (see
abstract;
full access requires subscription),
biologists report a previously unknown high variability
in the rates of invasive species spread. Although more research is needed,
the uncertainty the biologists found may place
more species at risk in a changing climate: flora and fauna may not be
able to march one step ahead of the pace of global warming.

Preventing
Hurricane Havoc: Environmental Teams Tackle the Invasive Plants and Weeds
that Impede Flood Control During Massive Storms (PDF | 94 KB) (Sep
14, 2009)
Weed Science Society of America.
If left unmanaged, invasive plants can
promote flooding by jamming pumps and blocking water flow, following
a massive storm. Environmental officials are using routine maintenance
controls to prevent reoccurrence of the species, which include water
hyacinth, water
lettuce, hydrilla, and
other fast-growing water plants.

Classifying
Light Brown Apple Moth for Eradication, Quarantine Is Justifiable In
Draft Response by APHIS to Petitioners (Sep 14, 2009)
National Academy
of Sciences.
A new report from the National Research
Council finds that the U.S.
Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service is within its broad regulatory authority
to classify California's invasive Light Brown Apple Moth as an "actionable" pest,
which the agency asserted in a draft response document to two petitions
questioning the classification.
