Download or read book Fruit Fly Pests written by Bruce A. McPheron and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A book of national and international importance, Fruit Fly Pests is an exhaustive compendium of information (with data provided by more than 100 contributors) that will appeal to a wide variety of readers. With huge losses experienced annually from fruit fly devastation, information on these high-profile insects is important to commercial fruit and vegetable growers, marketing exporters, government regulatory agencies, and the scientific community. Fruit flies impose a considerable resource tax, and the ones who suffer range from shippers to end users. The demand for world-wide plant protection requires up-to-date research information. This book meets that need. This book contains the proceedings from the most recent International Symposium on Fruit Flies of Economic Importance. Here you will find the major presentations given at the symposium, with an added feature - overviews from experts on topics not covered directly by participants in the symposium, filling in gaps in the current literature. The resulting publication is the most up-to-date and readable text to be found anywhere on the subject of tephritids.

  • Author : A. S. Robinson

  • Release : 1989
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 396 pages

Download or read book Fruit Flies written by A. S. Robinson and published by Elsevier Science & Technology. This book was released on 1989 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two volume work surveys the entire spectrum of research on tephritid fruit flies, with individual chapters prepared by experts in the various fields of research. Part A covers taxonomy and zoogeography, pest status, biology and physiology, and behaviour, while Part B covers genetics, rearing, population detection and assessment, ecology, and control. Tephritid fruit flies are very serious pests of fruit and vegetables throughout the world. If uncontrolled these pests are capable of causing substantial crop losses, losses which cannot be tolerated. They also pose a major problem to global trade since many countries have invoked quarantine restrictions to minimize the risk of establishment of exotic species. As a consequence of their economic importance there has been a very extensive research effort devoted to various aspects of their biology, ecology and control. Some very large, innovative control programs have been carried out in several parts of the world.

Book Area Wide Management of Fruit Fly Pests

Download or read book Area Wide Management of Fruit Fly Pests written by Diana Perez-Staples and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-11-22 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fruit fly (Diptera: Tephritidae) pests have a profound impact on horticultural production and economy of many countries. It is fundamental to understand their biology and evaluate methods for their suppression, containment, or eradication. Area-Wide Management of Fruit Fly Pests comprises contributions from scientists from around the world on several species of tephritids working on diverse subjects with a focus on area-wide management of these pests. The first three sections of the book explore aspects of the biology, ecology, physiology, behavior, taxonomy, and morphology of fruit flies. The next two sections provide evidence on the efficacy of attractants, risk assessment, quarantine, and post-harvest control methods. The fifth and sixth sections examine biological control methods such as the Sterile Insect Technique and the use of natural enemies of fruit flies. The seventh section focuses on area-wide integrated pest management and action programs. Finally, the eighth section examines social, economic, and policy issues of action programs aimed at involving the wider community in the control of these pests and facilitate the development of control programs. Features: Presents information on the biology of tephritid flies. Provides knowledge on the use of natural enemies of fruit flies for their biological control. Includes research results on models and diets used for the Sterile Insect Technique. Reports developments on the chemical ecology of fruit flies that contribute to make control methods more specific and efficient. Reviews subjects such as Holistic Pest Management and Area-Wide Management Programs including social, economic, and policy issues in various countries.
