This comprehensive book is a valuable resource for researchers, students, and professionals in the field of entomology, agriculture, and pest management.
This extensive book is a comprehensive compilation of the most current information available on the electronic monitoring of the feeding behavior of phytophagous true bugs. It features state-of-the-art illustrations showcasing the feeding sites on various plant structures, providing a detailed insight into the diverse feeding strategies employed by these insects. The book further examines the relationship between the different feeding strategies and the variable waveforms generated through the electropenetrography (EPG) technique. Additionally, it delves into the anatomy of the mouthparts and modes of feeding, shedding light on the physical and chemical damage caused by feeding activities. Spanning a wide range of EPG studies conducted on true bugs, the book explores the use of electronic monitoring in conjunction with histological analyses to enhance strategies for controlling these pests. It discusses the transition from traditional chemical methods to gene silencing (RNAi) as a promising approach for managing true bugs in agriculture and pest management.
This comprehensive resource is invaluable for researchers, students, and professionals engaged in entomology, agriculture, and pest management. It serves as a valuable reference for understanding the intricate feeding behaviors of phytophagous true bugs and developing effective control strategies to mitigate their impact on crops and ecosystems.
