Insects interact with plants in direct or indirect way. The host
selection and host sensitivity especially in bark beetles are important in
terms of their population and potential. The sensitivity of host trees is important in beetle epidemic as serious
damages may be given to trees during epidemics. The current study, the moisture content of wooden samples taken from
Anatolian black pine trees that were damaged by Ips sexdentatus and
healty trees has been determined. A total of 174 samples was taken from 29
trees (58,6% from damaged trees, 41,4% from healthy trees). The average
moisture content of trees was 40,75% for damaged trees, and 32,68% for healthy
trees. The moisture content of these trees is significantly different and
invasions have negatively affected moisture content. There is no statistical
difference between the moisture content of samples taken from north and south
sides of damaged trees, however there is a difference among moisture contents
of samples from three different heights (1.30m, 3.30m, 5.30m), but indifferent
from north and south

Ips sexdentatus’un Anadolu Karaçamı Ağaçlarındaki Nem İçeriğine Etkisi

Öz

Böcekler direkt veya indirekt olarak bitkilerle etkileşim halindedir. Bu
nedenle özellikle kabuk böceklerinde konukçu seçimi ve konukçu hassasiyeti bu
türlerin popülasyonu ve oluşturacakları zarar açısından önemlidir.  Ancak konukçu ağaçların hassasiyeti böcek
salgınlarında önemli olup salgınlar ağaçlarda ciddi zararlar meydana
getirebilir. Çalışmada, karaçam ağaçlarında, Ips sexdentatus
istilasına uğramış ve uğramamış Anatolian black pine ağaçlarından alınan odun
örneklerinin nem içerikleri belirlenmiştir. Toplam 29 ağaçtan alınan 174 adet
örnekle çalışılmıştır. Örneklerin %58,6’sı böcekli ağaçlardan %41,4’ü ise
sağlıklı ağaçlardan alınmıştır. Böcek zararı görmüş ağaçların ortalama nem
içerikleri %40,75; sağlıklı ağaçların ortalama nem içerikleri %32,68 olup bu
ağaçların nem içerikler istatistiksel olarak farklıdır ve istilalar nem
içeriğini olumsuz yönde etkilemiştir. Sağlıklı ağaçlarda kuzey ve güney
yönlerinden alınan örneklerin nem içerikleri arasında istatistiksel bir fark
bulunamamıştır. Böcek zararı görmüş ağaçlarda kuzey ve güney yönlerinden alınan
örnek disklerin nem içerikleri arasında istatistiksel bir fark bulunamazken üç
farklı yükseklikten (1.30m, 3.30m, 5,30m) alınan örnek disklerin nem içerikleri
arasında istatistiksel bir fark vardır. Ayrıca böcek zararı görmüş ve kuzey
yönündeki örneklerdeki nem içeriğinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı olduğu
görülmüştür
