Abstract: Invasive species pose significant threats to global agriculture, according to a study on impacts of 1300 invasive species on agriculture in 124 countries [1]. Invasive species dramatically decreased crop production and can be a major factor affecting food security [2]. In the United States alone, the losses in agricultural and forest production from invasive insects and pathogens have been estimated about $40 billion per year [3].
