Attendees at the 1992 workshop suggested that an
alternate host producing infective stages independently of oysters would most likely be very similar to the oyster (i.e., a sessile bivalve), and the seasonal infection cycle would probably also be similar.
Hugh et al., 2014) mentioned some species of weeds as
alternate hosts of B.
Alternate host plants can be used to attract insect pests away from economically prized plants.
BellSouth's new Back-up Frame Relay Service addresses this need by rerouting data to an
alternate host computer should an outage occur.
Instead, the issue is whether a specialized insect species encountering a novel host (as a result of geographic range expansion by either the insect or novel plant) encounters more suitable novel hosts if it expands into a hybrid zone or into the range of a (nonhybridizing)
alternate host. The number of hybrids that are only a short "bridge" from the parental host is likely to be small relative to the number of parental hosts.
One individual included in this study (#A115, see Appendix 1) was recorded singing the song of an

Configuration is performed from the front panel of the 5250 ALLY, or with commands in the data stream either from the twinax host or from an

(Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) can easily be mass-reared at low cost, and used as an

"For the wasps to be abundant in the spring," Williams says, "we need an

Overall, our results highlight the need to continue assessing other Annona species potentially serving as
alternate host plants for A.
Paul, Minn., have shown for the first time that stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis, is capable of sexually reproducing on the leaves of an
alternate host called barberry, a common ornamental.
The plant species that a fly was reared from will be referred to as the host plant and the other species as the
