Advances in Understanding Insect Pests Affecting Wheat and Other Cereals

978-1-80146-113-9 (ISBN)
With growing concerns surrounding the impact of climate change on both native and invasive pest invasions, coupled with the rising threat of global food insecurity, more research is required to understand the major insect pests of cereals, including how best to control and monitor them.
Advances in understanding insect pests affecting wheat and other cereals provides a comprehensive review of the wealth of research that addresses this challenge. This collection discusses the most recent developments in fundamental and applied research on major pests and shows how better understanding of these pests can be used to improve integrated pest management strategies.
Dr Sanford D. Eigenbrode is University Distinguished Professor in the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences at the University of Idaho, USA. A Fellow of the Entomological Society of America, Professor Eigenbrode is internationally known for his research on the chemical ecology of insect-plant interactions, particularly in the context of vector-borne plant pathogens and cropping systems under climate change. Dr Arash Rashed is Associate Professor in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences and Director of the Southern Piedmont Agricultural Research and Extension Center, Virginia Tech, USA. He is well known as an expert in the ecology of insect-borne plant pathogens and integrated pest management. He has made significant contributions to our understanding of zebra chip disease ecology and management, as well as managing important subterranean pests such as wireworms in organic and conventional production systems.
