▪ Abstract Tracking the movement of insects in their natural habitat is essential for
understanding their basic biology, demography, and ethology. A wide variety of markers …

The development of sampling methods and measures to assess the status of pest
populations has been critical to the development and advancement of pest control …

Since the sterile insect technique (SIT) relies upon released sterile male insects efficiently
competing with wild males to mate with wild females, it follows that mass-rearing of insects is …

Insects are amongst the greatest pests of agriculture, horticulture and forestry worldwide,
inflicting damage and economic costs both directly and by transmitting plant viruses. Many …

Abstract Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) is an important pest of citrus. It is
an efficient vector of three bacterial pathogens that are the presumptive causal agents of …

As the sterile insect technique (SIT) relies upon released sterile male insects efficiently
competing with wild males to mate with wild females, it follows that mass-rearing of insects is …

Simple Summary Understanding insect dispersal helps us predict the spread of insect pests
and their natural enemies. Dispersal can be studied by marking, releasing, and recapturing …

An immunomarking system useful for determining insect movement patterns was developed
that allows the marking of naturally occurring populations of insects within large areas with …

Trap crop** may exploit a pest's dispersal and host selection behavior in order to protect a
desired crop. Here, we used a combination of visual sampling, immunomarking, and …

In this study we focus on the invasive brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys
(Stål)(Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), which has a strong dispersal capacity and has had a …
