Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Widespread, human-induced ecosystem degradation and the associated biodiversity loss pose a direct threat to human wellbeing. While there is no substitute for healthy, self-sustaining ecosystems, ecological restoration offers an attractive, and indeed inevitable, supplement where conservation alone is not sufficient to support ecosystem integrity. Restoration is undergoing a revolution, where evidence-based (EB) practice is emerging as a new approach to increase the chances of successfully achieving restoration goals. EB practic

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Globally, habitat transformation causes biodiversity loss, with the transformed matrix often affecting the disturbance regime in remnant natural patches. In South Africa, significant parts of the Indian Ocean coastal belt and grassland biomes have been transformed into commercial forestry plantations of alien trees, which are detrimental to local biodiversity. Consequently, large scale ecological networks (ENs) of remnant natural vegetation, maintained areas (e.g. firebreaks) and special landscape features (e.g. rocky outcrops a

Abstract:

The species status and host range of Heliothis armigera was investigated. DNA profiling, mitochondrial DNA sequencing, RAPD's, along with traditional morphological and crossing methods were used to investigate micro, macro and mega-population structuring. Thirty-six new host records were added, of which a number are important common weeds and crops. Mortality due to parasitoids and fungal infections were quantified on many host species. Genetic analysis of the COII and the AT-rich regions of the mitochondrial DNA showed very high levels of variation, as did the DNA profiling using the probes (

Abstract:

Ecological communities are collections of species bound together by their influences on one another. Community structure, therefore, refers to the way in which these influences are organised. As a result, ecologists are mainly interested in the factors driving the structure, functioning, and persistence of communities. The traditional focus, however, has been on the feeding relationships among species (direct trophic interactions), whereas relationships mediated by a third species or the environment (indirect interactions) have been largely overlooked.

Ecological networks (ENs) are systems of remnant natural habitat which remain intact in a transformed matrix, and have been suggested as a means to mitigate the effects of habitat loss and transformation and the resulting loss of biodiversity. Conceptually, ENs are similar to habitat corridors but are larger in scale and more heterogeneous in their design and management. Like corridors, the efficacy of ENs for biodiversity conserva

The superfamily Apoidea (commonly referred to as bees), are insects whose diet consists of the nectar and pollen from flowering plants. Therefore, they are essential pollinators of many species, both wild and cultivated. Bees are similar to other Hymenoptera in appearance, size, and color variety. The superfamily Apoidea contains 17,000 known species and could possibly contain up to 30,000. Bees perform many tasks that benefit humanity such as pollinating the flowers of both wild and cultivated plants.

Within nature, each insect population is attacked by one or more natural enemies.

Abstract:

Scale insects (Hempitera: Coccoidea) are noxious sap-sucking plant pests, most important as agricultural pest of perennial plants, woody ornamentals, greenhouse plants and forest trees. They are worldwide distributed and occur in almost all habitats. Unlike their ecological and economic importance, scale insects represent a neglected research topic and most studies are almost always referred to the main families, bringing to the current dearth of scientific data for this taxon. This thesis deals with two main investigation fields: taxonomy (Chapter I) and bio-ecology (Chapter II) of scale i

Abstract:

Pest insects are an ongoing issue to human society. Containment of pests can become problematic, especially when the species are gregarious and are a health risk to humans and animals. A species of recent interest is the processionary caterpillar, Ochrogaster lunifer, a urticating species found in Australia and associated with defoliation of acacias and eucalypts. A similar European species is the pine processionary moth, Thaumetopoea pityocampa. The caterpillars are destructive defoliators of pine and cedar trees in the Mediterranean Basin and Southern Europe. Both O. lunifer and T. pityocamp

Abstract:

Thaumetopoeinae include several species called processionary moths, mainly due to their gregarious behaviour to form long single lines to forage and to pupate. Even if historically it has been considered as a separate family, Thaumetopoeinae were recently included as a subfamily of Notodontidae, based on both cladistic and molecular analyses. This groups has a great importance for forestry and landscape because their larvae feed on trees and shrubs, both broadleaved and coniferous, defoliating the canopy and weakening the plants, making them more susceptible to tree killers (i.e. bark beetles)

Abstract:

The microbiota, including commensal, symbiotic and pathogenic microbes (bacteria, archaea, protists, fungi, viruses), has a great influence on the physiology and ecology of many multicellular organisms. So much so that many organisms should be treated as a unique biological system together with their microbiota (holobionts). Insects are one of the major focuses of microbiota studies since they constitute the most diverse animal class on earth, play a central role in many terrestrial ecosystems, include several economically important species and are easily manipulable in laboratory conditions.
