Sažetak
Invasive pest species, along with climate change, are among the two most important environmental problems facing the world today. They pose the greatest threat to various types of ecosystems worldwide, especially agriculture. Climate warming has significant impacts on reproduction, survival, dispersal and population dynamics, as well as on the relationships between insect species, the environment and their natural enemies. As a result, there is a serious risk of economic losses to crops as well as a challenge to human food security. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between climate change and the process of invasion by economically important insects. Increasing international trade systems and human mobility have led to increased introductions of invasive insects, while climate change may reduce barriers to their establishment and spread. To limit the ecological and economic damage, it is important to understand the biotic and abiotic factors that influence the process of invasion in the context of climate change. We highlight the major biotic factors that influence the biological invasion process. Finally, we present the adaptive management strategies for invasion of non-native insect pests that include prevention, eradication and assessment of biological invasion in the form of predictive modelling.
