Abstract

All major and potentially serious insect and disease pests of shortleaf pine are briefly presented and discussed. Major emphasis of discussion is that losses can be minimized by selection and application of appropriate pest management systems. With some pests, integrated control can be supplemented with and economic analysis to further assist selection of management options.
