Short Term Scientific Mission

• Fribourg, Switzerland

• University of Fribourg

  • Aug 2014 - Aug 2014

  This STSM was focused on field explorations of Ambrosia artemisiifolia in South Switzerland and North Ital - under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Heinz Müller-Schärer. Native European herbivore sampling and Ophraella communa (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) non-target survey were realized at six sites. Sweeping plants, plant dissection and visual observations were used for the survey. STSM yielded to the great collection of native insect which will be compared with Slovak insect guilds. Ragweed infestation by Eryophid mite and non-target host’s infestation by O. communa were especially remarkable. The field observations shed light on O. communa potential for biological control.
