1 Introduction history and prospects for biological control of Brazilian peppertree Jim Cuda Rodrigo Diaz Veronica Manrique Greg Wheeler Bill Overholt University of Florida

2 Outline Background Introduction history Biological control

3 Background Native to Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and northern Argentina Introduced into FL as an ornamental in 1800s Invades a variety of habitats including disturbed areas as well as pinelands, hardwood hammocks and mangrove forests

4 Weitht (g) Invasive characteristics Fast growth Prolific seed production Vectored by birds Year round growth Vigorous resprouting Tolerant of a wide range of conditions Salinity Extremes in moisture Shade Rivina humilis a b Allelopathy 0 Control Treatment Schinus

5 Reasons for concern Ecological costs Displacement of native vegetation Economic costs Management Human health costs respiratory problems contact dermatitis

6 Introduction history : Specimen collected in Florida by Ferdinand Rugel 1898: Introduction of seeds from France and Algeria into USDA Plant Introduction Center in Miami 1926: Introduction from somewhere in Brazil into west coast Florida.

7 Number of herbarium records Invasion of natural habitats Uncultivated Cultivated present

8 Molecular evidence of introduction history Chloroplast Nucleus Chloroplast DNA Nuclear DNA + A x B + AA x BB A AB

9 Results chloroplast DNA A A B B

10 Nuclear DNA reveals extensive hybridization

11 Origin of Florida BP types B A

12 Overwintering experiment Flagler Co. Punta Gorda Miami

14 How Biological Control Works Native home Invaded area Biological Control

15 Candidate biological agents under investigation Pseudophilothrips ichini Feeds on growing tips Calophya spp. Pit galls on leaves Apocnemidophorus pipitzi Defoliator, wood borer

16 Brazilian peppertree thrips, Pseudophilothrips ichini 3 mm

17 Percent Survival Percent survival Variation in thrips performance on different Brazilian peppertree types Curitiba: from type D BP 80 Ouro Preto: from type A Salvador: from type B Curitiba Ouro Preto Salvador Ouro Preto Curitiba BZ-D BZ-A FL-A FL-B FL-HYBA FL-HYBB Brazilian peppertree type Ouro Preto Salvador FL-A FL-B FL-HYBA FL-HYBB Brazilian peppertree type

32 The Federal Review Process.

33 To summarize Two types of Brazilian peppertree were introduced into Florida The two types hybridized, which we believe may have increased the tree s aggressiveness and allowed expansion into cooler areas Several candidate biological control agents are currently under investigation A petition for release of the wood boring weevil is pending approval Petitions for two other insects soon to be submitted
