Biology and Ecology of Crop Pests Emphasizing Areawide
Suppression of Boll Weevil and Corn Earworm

Corn Rootworm

• Examination of factors affecting Mexican corn rootworm reproductive biology

• Population dynamics of Mexican corn rootworm in sorghum adjacent to corn

• Influence of corn ears on sticky trap captures of the Mexican corn rootworm

Corn Earworn / Cotton Bollworm

• Bollworm Flight Response to and Capture by Feeding Attractant-baited Traps.

• Flight Response of Bollworm Moths to Crops Treated with Adult Feeding Stimulant

• Effects of Bat Foraging and Artificial Bat Calls on Bollworm Infestations in Cotton

Other Pest

• Determine the longevity of spores/pollen as an artificial marker

• Determine longevity of DBM adults on wild hosts during Brassicaceae-free periods

• Refinement of an artificial marking system using spores/pollen for nectar feeding insects.
