Titre(s) : Trapping and the Detection, Control, and Regulation of Tephritid Fruit Flies [Texte électronique] : Lures, Area-Wide Programs, and Trade Implications / edited by Todd Shelly, Nancy Epsky, Eric B. Jang, Jesus Reyes-Flores, Roger Vargas

Description matérielle : 1 online resource
Note(s) : Tephritid fruit flies are among the world's most notorious pests of commercially important
fruits and vegetables, and with ever-increasing human and product movement and accelerated
global warming, these flies will have an even greater impact in the future. Information
gathered through trapping is crucial to understanding their ecology, controlling their
populations, and developing international trade agreements. This volume is the first
devoted exclusively to trapping tephritid fruit flies and adopts a comprehensive and
global approach in describing key empirical and theoretical issues. The book consists
of four major sections, which cover lures and traps, ecology and detection, attract-and-kill
methods of control, and phytosanitary programs and regulations. Within this broad
perspective, the authors focus on a diverse array of basic and applied topics, including
the role of pheromones, food-baits, and plant odors as trap lures, dispersion and
invasion biology, modeling detection programs, evaluation of bait stations, mass trapping,
and male annihilation as control measures, and the role of trapping data in developing
trade regulations. Representing 15 countries, the authors bring rich experience to
the subject and ably describe current status as well as historical perspective and
future direction of the selected topics. Useful manuals exist, but this book offers
a much broader, academic, and international perspective to the core principles of
tephritid trapping. The book's audience will include researchers, teachers, animal
and plant health administrators, and policy makers. Given the breadth of material
covered and the exhaustive citation listing along with the increasing agricultural
threat posed by tephritid fruit flies, this book will be an extremely valuable reference
on the subject for many years to come
