Effect of forest management intensity on the interplay of bottom-up and top-down effects in a three-trophic-level interaction: galling insects on European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) and their parasitoids in the biodiversity exploratory Hainich/Dün (Z_Myk_2010-04) Alexandra Kehl, Gerhard Rambold

Exploring the Interplay Between Willows, Gall-Inducing Insects, and Associated Fungi (Z_Myk_2010-07) A. Kehl, G. Rambold and coworkers studied how plant traits, floral scent, and insect activity influence gall formation and sooty mould occurrence on Salix. Their findings highlight key biotic factors shaping these interactions, including Pontania proxima.

IT expert group (GBIF Germany) (BMBF GBIF-D Biodiversity Informatics) The IT working group, as part of GBIF-Germany’s coordination structure, gathered technical information on existing software developments and facilitated knowledge exchange among biodiversity informatics developers. Gerhard Rambold’s efforts advanced data integration and sharing tools, while A. Kehl contributed through workshops that improved collaboration and infrastructure understanding. Together, their work supported global biodiversity research and strengthened community cooperation.

Wirtsselektivität gallinduzierender Pflanzenwespen (Hymenoptera, Tenthredinidae) an Weiden (Salix spp.): die Bedeutung von Phänotyp und Genotyp im Salix alba/S. fragilis-Komplex für die Belegung mit Gallen (DFG DFG GRK 678/1 Projekt 11) A. Kehl and G. Rambold examined how host plant traits influence Pontania proxima gall formation and showed that floral scent may guide sawfly oviposition. They also demonstrated that Salix × rubens, a hybrid willow, has unique traits and earlier foliation, contributing to its growth and distribution.
