Chemical Ecology of Insects
Crc Press Inc (Verlag)
978-1-4987-6940-2 (ISBN)
Insects have evolved very unique and interesting tactics using chemical signals to survive. Chemical ecology illustrates the working of the biological network by means of chemical analyses. Recent advances in analytical technology have opened the way to a better understanding of the more complicated and abyssal interactions of insects with other organisms including plants and microbes. This book covers recent research on insects and chemical communications and presents the current status about challenges faced by chemical ecologists for the management of pests in agriculture and human health.
Jun Tabata works as a Senior Researcher in the Biodiversity Division of the National Institute for Agro-Environmental Sciences.
