Download or read book Aphids as Crop Pests, 2nd Edition written by Helmut F van Emden and published by CABI. This book was released on 2017-08-23 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aphids are among the major global pest groups, causing serious economic damage to many food and commodity crops in most parts of the world. This revision and update of the well-received first edition published ten years ago reflects the expansion of research in genomics, endosymbionts and semiochemicals, as well as the shift from control of aphids with insecticides to a more integrated approach imposed by increasing resistance in the aphids and government restrictions on pesticides. The book remains a comprehensive and up-to-date reference work on the biology of aphids, the various methods of controlling them and the progress of integrated pest management as illustrated by ten case histories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecofriendly Pest Management for Food Security explores the broad range of opportunity and challenges afforded by Integrated Pest Management systems. The book focuses on the insect resistance that has developed as a result of pest control chemicals, and how new methods of environmentally complementary pest control can be used to suppress harmful organisms while protecting the soil, plants, and air around them. As the world’s population continues its rapid increase, this book addresses the production of cereals, vegetables, fruits, and other foods and their subsequent demand increase. Traditional means of food crop production face proven limitations and increasing research is turning to alternative means of crop growth and protection. Addresses environmentally focused pest control with specific attention to its role in food security and sustainability. Includes a range of pest management methods, from natural enemies to biomolecules. Written by experts with extensive real-world experience.

Download or read book Aphid Biodiversity under Environmental Change written by Pavel Kindlmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the results of recent research on aphid population dynamics and ecology relevant to current environmental changes resulting from global wa- ing. It incorporates a selection of the contributions presented at the International Symposium on Aphids in Fremantle, Australia, in October 2005, plus some ad- tional invited chapters. The objective was to incorporate the major issues in the ?eld and simultaneously create a closely interrelated and integrated volume. The ?rst chapter sets the scene. Kindlmann and Dixon present a critical review of existing models of aphid population dynamics, examine the biological assumptions that are incorporated in the models and present one of the latest models of aphid metapopulation dynamics. They conclude that natural enemies are unlikely to affect aphid population dynamics late in a season, but in some years may have an effect very early in the season, when aphid colonies are still small and predators might be able to reduce the numbers of colonies. The question, whether aphids will move to different locations, adapt to the change in conditions in their current habitat or go extinct is discussed by Ameixa. She concludes that the distributions of aphids are most likely to change, with the distribution of each species moving globally as their preferred habitat moves in response to changes in the climate, which may be more dif?cult than in the past because of habitat fragmentation and habitat loss.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a symposium sponsored by the Board on Agriculture, this comprehensive book explores the problem of pesticide resistance; suggests new approaches to monitor, control, or prevent resistance; and identifies the changes in public policy necessary to protect crops and human health from the ravages of pests. The volume synthesizes the most recent information from a wide range of disciplines, including entomology, genetics, plant pathology, biochemistry, economics, and public policy. It also suggests research avenues that would indicate how to counter future problems. A glossary provides the reader with additional guidance.

Indeed, among the 4000 or so known species of aphids about 250 are pests, and in temperate regions several are economically important agricultural pests that damage crops directly during feeding or act as v

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Aphids, held in September 2001 at Rennes, France, and organised by the aphidologists of Inra and the Ecole Nationale Supérieure Agronomique de Rennes (Ensar). It covers most aspects of aphid researches world-wide, gathered in five sections on Biology and Ecology - Taxonomy, Systematics and Faunistics - Genetics, Population Biology and Evolutionary Ecology - Population Dynamics, Biological Control and Integrated Pest Management - Aphid-plant Relationships. The number of papers and their diversity reflect the dynamism of the world community of aphid-working scientists.

Book excerpt: Pest management has long been a problem for farmers worldwide and new techniques are continually being developed to reduce the adverse effects of pest populations. The use of areawide pest management has increased dramatically over the past decade and offers potential advantages to traditional and more localized approaches. Suppression over a broad area can reduce re-infestation of previously treated areas and the specific pest management techniques may be more effective when applied over larger areas. Providing the first comprehensive discussion of areawide pest management, this book will explore the theoretical development and implementation of techniques from a worldwide perspective. Areas covered include history and development, biological and ecological impacts and recent case studies of pest management programmes.

Download or read book Detecting Sugarcane Aphid (Melanaphis Sacchari) Infestation in Grain Sorghum (Sorghum Bicolor) Using Leaf Spectral Response written by Grace Craigie and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sugarcane aphids (Melanaphis sacchari) are major agricultural pests to sorghum and infestation can cause up to 70% yield loss without timely insecticide applications. Populations can build exponentially on susceptible plants and require frequent field monitoring to determine when densities reach injurious levels. Current monitoring practices for sugarcane aphids (SCA) are time consuming and not practical for high acreage fields. Our overarching goal in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is to develop more efficient monitoring techniques for SCA using remote sensing technologies, but this requires a better understanding of the interactions between aphids and leaf damage. Therefore, we studied the effect of SCA density on sorghum spectral responses near the feeding site and quantified potential systemic effects (i.e., plant-induced response) to see if the aphid feeding can be detected on leaves distal to the infestation. A leaf spectrometer, 400-1000 nm range, was used to measure reflectance changes in the range of 400-1000 nm by varying levels of SCA density on lower leaves and those distant to the caged infestation. Our results show that SCA infestation can be determined by changes in reflected light, especially between the green-red range (500-650 nm) and that sorghum plants respond systemically. This research is an important first step in developing more effective pest management strategies for SCA, as it shows that leaf reflection sensors can be used to identify aphid feeding regardless of where the infestation occurs on the plant. Future research should address whether such reflectance signatures can be observed autonomously using small unmanned aircraft systems or sUAS equipped with comparable sensor technologies. The goal is to improve sampling efficiency and overall decision making for this invasive species and reduce potential yield losses for growers through timely decisions.
