Data from: Niche partitioning and coexistence of parasitoids of the same feeding guild introduced for biological control of an invasive forest pest

<p>The data set is collected to evaluate if two parasitoids (<em>Spathius galinae</em> and <em>Tetrastichus planipennisi</em>), introduced for biocontrol of the invasive emerald ash borer (EAB), <em>Agrilus planipennis</em>, into North America have established niche-partitioning, co-existing populations following their sequential or simultaneous field releases to 12 hard-wood forests located in Midwest and Northeast regions of the United States. Ash trees of various sizes (large, pole-size and saplings) were debarked meter by meter in early spring of 2019 (Michigan sites) or fall of 2019 (Northeast states: Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York). Detailed data collection procedures can be found in the associated publication in Biological Control. </p><div><br>Resources in this dataset:</div><br><ul><li><p>Resource Title: Niche partitioning and coexistence of parasitoids of the same feeding guild introduced for biological control of an invasive forest pest - Michigan data.</p> <p>File Name: Michigan 2019-EAB Parasitoid Niche Partition-Raw.csv</p><p>Resource Description: Michigan Dataset</p><p>Resource Software Recommended: JMP,url: <a href="https://www.JMP.com">https://www.JMP.com</a> </p></li><br><li><p>Resource Title: Niche partitioning and coexistence of parasitoids of the same feeding guild introduced for biological control of an invasive forest pest - Northeast states data.</p> <p>File Name: NE Dataset 2019-EAB Parasitoid Niche Partition-Raw.csv</p><p>Resource Description: Northeast States Data set</p></li><br><li><p>Resource Title: Niche partitioning and coexistence of parasitoids of the same feeding guild introduced for biological control of an invasive forest pest - Data Dictionary.</p> <p>File Name: Data Dictionary for Parasitoid niche partitioning study from Biological Control.docx</p><p>Resource Description: Data dictionary</p></li></ul><p></p>
