Biorational Tree-Fruit Pest Management

The inception of this book is tied closely to the legacy of Ronald J. Prokopy (1935– 2004). Ron was not only one of the most highly regarded applied behavioural ecologists worldwide, but also a pioneer in the development of one of the first successful integrated pest and disease management (IPM)...

Ron was not only one of the most highly regarded applied behavioural ecologists worldwide, but also a pioneer in the development of one of the first successful integrated pest and disease management (IPM) programmes for apple orchards. His research programme was aimed at studying the behavioural ecology and management of tree-fruit pests, particularly fruit-fly species. His work on the behaviour of the apple maggot fly, Rhagoletis pomonella(Walsh), and many other tephritid species, has led not only to an archetypal behavioural model for those interested in studying host fi nding and selection, but also to practical behaviourally based management strategies that fit into IPM, integrated fruit production and organic production systems. His keen interest in basic behaviour also led to novel research in areas such as learning and social facilitation. Ron was also a strong and tireless proponent of IPM strategies, developing theoretical approaches, working extensively with growers and conducting numerous large-scale experiments throughout the important apple-growing region of New England, USA. 2014-04-02T07:09:00Z 2014-04-02T07:09:00Z 2009 Book 978 1 84593 484 2 https://scholar.dlu.edu.vn/thuvienso/handle/DLU123456789/36811 en application/pdf CABI
