A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

Dr Michelle Fountain is Head of Pest and Pathogen Ecology at the world-famous NIAB East Malling (formerly East Malling Research), UK. She is internationally renowned for her research on integrated insect pest management (IPM) and insect pollination in fruit horticulture. Dr Fountain is co-editor of Integrated management of diseases and pests of tree fruit, published by Burleigh Dodds Science Publishing in 2019.

Dr Tom Pope is Reader in Entomology and Integrated Pest Management at Harper Adams University, a leading agricultural university in the UK. A fellow of the Royal Entomological Society, Dr Pope is a globally recognised expert in tracking and understanding the behaviour of insect and other pests as well as in the design and implementation of IPM programmes.

Dr Archie K. Murchie is an applied agricultural entomologist working in the Agri-Food & Biosciences Institute, which is a Government-funded organisation based in Northern Ireland. He obtained his PhD in biological control of crop pests in 1997 from Rothamsted Research and Keele University and is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Entomological Society, and Honorary Senior Lecturer at Queen's University Belfast.

Dr. William (Bill) Hutchison is a Professor and Extension Entomologist at the University of Minnesota, St. Paul, USA. His expertise is applied insect population ecology, as it relates to the development of innovative Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs for a variety of fruit and vegetable crops. He has also been active in evaluating the long-term sustainability of insect-resistant, genetically engineered (GE) maize, and implementing GE crops into IPM programs. He is also active in international IPM research, with a current US-AID project in East Africa.

Dr Alistair Drake is a retired entomologist who holds honorary positions with The University of New South Wales and the Institute for Applied Ecology at the University of Canberra. His research interests include the development of radar techniques for insect observation, their application to pest forecasting, aeroecology (especially of insects), and more general aspects of animal migration and applied ecology. He has co-authored a monograph on radar entomology and co-edited a multiauthor book on insect migration.
