Insect pest management and ecological research / Walter, G.H. (2003)  

Public ISBD Titre : Insect pest management and ecological research Type de document : livre Auteurs : Walter, G.H. Mention d'édition : 01 éd. Editeur : Cambridge : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2003 Importance : 387 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-80062-4 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 10/04/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Ecology  Insect control  Integrated control  Integrated pest management  Pest control  Pest insects Résumé : Insect Pest Management and Ecological Research explores the ecological research required for development of strategies to manage pest insects, with particular emphasis on the scientific principles involved in the design and conduct of pest-related research. Although the connection between Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and ecology has been long appreciated, their specific relationship to one another has remained vague until now. Here, Gimme Walter develops the first general model of the entomological research requirements of IPM. He shows how to navigate through the diversity of options presented by current ecological theory, emphasising pest situations. Besides theory and principle, the book includes practical advice on understanding and investigating species, examines the ecological problems associated with polyphagous pests and beneficial species, and scrutinises ways suggested to improve insect biological control. As such, it will be an important resource for graduate students and researchers, in IPM, insect pest management, entomology, ecology and crop protection.

Ecological engineering for pest management: advances in habitat manipulation for arthropods / Geoff M. Gurr (2004)  

Public ISBD Titre : Ecological engineering for pest management: advances in habitat manipulation for arthropods Type de document : livre Auteurs : Geoff M. Gurr, Éditeur scientifique ; Steve D. Wratten, Éditeur scientifique ; Miguel A. Altieri, Éditeur scientifique ; David Pimentel, Préfacier, etc. Editeur : Ithaca : Comstock Année de publication : 2004 Importance : 232 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-8014-4342-8 Note générale : ISBN-10 : 0-8014-4342-3 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Applied Ecology  Arthropoda  Engineering  Habitat selection  Pest control Résumé : Ecological engineering is the process of manipulating farm habitats, making them less favourable for pests and more attractive to beneficial insects. Though they have received far less research attention and funding, ecological approaches may be safer and more sustainable than their controversial cousin, genetic engineering. This book brings together contributions from international workers leading the fast moving field of habitat manipulation, reviewing the field and paving the way towards the development and application of new pest management approaches. Chapters explore the frontiers of ecological engineering methods including molecular approaches, high tech marking and remote sensing. They also review the theoretical aspects of this field and how ecological engineering may interact with genetic engineering. The technologies presented offer opportunities to reduce crop losses to insects while reducing the use of pesticides and providing potentially valuable habitat for wildlife conservation.
